ABSTRACT:
A method of manufacturing truly complementary bipolar transistors on a common substrate. The method results in the fabrication of vertical NPN and PNP transistors which have an identical structure and mode of operation, with both devices operating in the downward direction. The inventive method permits independent control of the characteristics of the two devices, producing a closely matched performance for both devices.
