Abstract
Scaling of submicron InP-InGaAs HBTs is investigated for low-power high-speed applications in mixed signal circuits. Device performance for transistors fabricated with a 0.5-μm emitter width and varying emitter lengths are studied. The 0.5 μm×2 μm devices yielded excellent low-current RF performance, with an f <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">T</sub> =173 GHz and an f <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">max</sub> =187 GHz at 1 mA, the highest values reported for InP-based devices to date.
