Hj. Ou et al., HIGH-FREQUENCY GAINP GAAS HETEROSTRUCTURE-EMITTER BIPOLAR-TRANSISTOR WITH TOW OFFSET VOLTAGE/, Electronics Letters, 33(8), 1997, pp. 714-716
A carbon doped GaInP/GaAs heterostructure-emitter bipolar transistor (
HEBT) grown by MOCVD is reported with high RF performance. A cutoff fr
equency of 50 GHz and maximum oscillation frequency of 90 GHz were obt
ained for the device. An offset voltage as low as 90 mV was achieved.
It is shown that the GaInP/GaAs HEBT with a high frequency and a low o
ffset voltage is a good candidate for low battery power device applica
tions.
