Zusammenfassung:A semiconductor device, preferably a bipolar CMOS device such as a bipolar transistor, comprising an emitter (36) and a collector (34) with an oxide region (32) therebetween, is provided with a collector shunt (26) in the form of a high concentration diffused implant below the oxide region (32), thereby to reduce the resistance of the emitter-to-collector path. The implant may be of phosphorous and/or arsenic. In a process for manufacturing such a device, silicon nitride is deposited on the well surface to define the boundary of the area for the shunt implant.
