Abstract
SiGe HBT noise parameters ( NF <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">min</sub> , R <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">n</sub> and Γ <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">opt</sub> ) are for the first time extracted in the entire 130 - 170 GHz frequency range. This achievement is realized using a D-band on-chip source-pull system, which includes an impedance tuner integrated with the transistor under test. On-wafer noise power measurements on this system were performed for each tuner impedance state, from which are extracted the transistor noise parameters in the complete D-band.
