ABSTRACT:
The structure and associated fabrication processes disclosed provide a resistive element directly over a specific semiconductor region. Use of such a structure in a high current device ballasts emitter fingers to improve the maximum current flow of the device. The resistor element includes polysilicon which has conductivity affecting impurities in it with concentration less than 10.sup.20 atom/cm.sup.3, and typically 10.sup.17 to 10.sup.19 atom/cm.sup.3, to create a resistivity of generally 0.05 to 5 ohm-cm.
Such a resistive element may be formed by plural implants into the polysilicon, with subsequent annealing; by smoothly varying, typically between 10 keV and 300 keV, the implant energy during implanting; by implanting an appropriate impurity into doped polysilicon to adjust the effective impurity concentration; or by backdiffusing an impurity from a heavily doped region into the overlaying polysilicon.
