Heterojunction bipolar transistor (hbt) having improved emitter-base grading structure |
摘要 |
<p>A heterojunction bipolar transistor (HBT) (200), including an emitter (214) formed from a first semiconductor material, a base (208) formed from a second semiconductor material, and a grading structure (250) between the emitter (214) and the base (208) is disclosed. The grading structure (250) comprises a semiconductor material containing at least one element not present in the first and second semiconductor materials, where the grading structure (250) has a conduction band energy substantially equal to a conduction band energy of the base (208) at an interface between the base (208) and the grading structure (250), and where the grading structure (250) has a conduction band energy substantially equal to a conduction band energy of the emitter (214) at an interface between the emitter (214) and the grading structure (250). <IMAGE></p> |
