Abstract
The dependence of the current gain with the size of the emitter-base junction of double mesa Self Passivated Heterojunction Bipolar Transistors (SP-HBT) has been investigated, the extrinsic base layer being passivated with a n-type GaInP layer. The current gain is widely improved, due to a 18-fold reduction of the surface recombination in the extrinsic base region with respect to unpassivated HBT. The surface recombination current ideality factor has been found to be 1.13.
