ABSTRACT:
A reduced pressure epitaxial deposition method is disclosed to maximize performance and leakage limited yield of devices formed in the epitaxial layer. The method includes specified prebake and deposition conditions designed to minimize arsenic (buried subcollector) and boron (buried isolation) autodoping effects when pressures below one atmosphere are selected in accordance with the subcollector-to-isolation area ratio.
