An investigation of heterojunction bipolar transistors by molecular beam epitaxy

Abstract

dc:description

Described in this thesis are the growth, characterization, and modeling of heterojunction bipolar transistors (HBTs). The superior high current handling capacity and high operation frequency of heterojunction bipolar transistors have attracted a great deal of interest in millimeter-wave and high-speed digital applications. This thesis details the performance of InAlAs/InGaAs and AlGaAs/GaAs-on-Si HBTs investigated with state-of-the-art results. Carrier transport across the heterointerface, the current conduction mechanism in the base, and related device parameters of the experimental results are emphasized.
