Abstract
High-speed InGaP/GaAs heterojunction bipolar transistors (HBT's) with a small emitter area are described. WSi is used as the base electrode to fabricate HBT's with a narrow base contact width and a buried SiO <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sub> structure. An HBT with an emitter area of 0.8×5 μm exhibited an f <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">T</sub> of 105 GHz and an f <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">max</sub> of 120 GHz. These high values are obtained due to the reduction of C/sub BC/ by using buried SiO <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sub> with a narrow base contact width, indicating the great potential of GaAs HBT's for high-speed and low-power circuit applications.
