Abstract

AbstractApproaches to solving the problem of the development of efficient bipolar and heterobipolar transistors operating at radio- and ultrahigh frequencies (0.1–10 GHz), which could be used as active elements of modern Si-based and GaAs-based radiation-resistant analog-digital integrated circuits, are discussed. Comparison of the radiation resistance of prospective “lateral” Si-based bipolar and “vertical” AlGaAs/GaAs heterobipolar transistors with a characteristic base thickness of 70–350 nm is performed. The features of the electron transport in active transistor regions are analyzed in detail and the influence of a surge in the velocity and the diffusion of quasi-ballistic electrons on an increase in the radiation resistance of transistors is evaluated.
