Abstract

1362852 Transistors RCA CORPORATION 15 Sept 1971 [23 Dec 1970] 43049/71 Heading H1K The breakdown voltage of the collector-base junction of a transistor is raised by the provision of a high resistivity diffusion 24 at the periphery of the base zone 22. This diffusion, which forms an extension of the base region, extends to at least 75% of the depth of the plane portion of the main junction and may extend beyond the plane portion to reach a maximum depth of 50% of the thickness of the underlying portion of the higher resistivity layer 13 of the collector 12. In a variant transistor (of overlay type) those portions of the base which each contain a separate emitter diffusion are surrounded by a grid form part of higher conductivity and the high resistivity diffusion is provided at the outer periphery of the high conductivity grid. In both embodiments the base electrode contacts the high resistivity diffusion and the contiguous part of the main base region or high conductivity grid.
