A heterojunction bipolar transistor (HBT), having a substrate formed of indium phosphide (InP), and having emitter, base and collector layers formed over the substrate such that the base layer is disposed between the emitter and collector layers. The collector layer formed from InGAs, and the collector layer being doped n-type. The emitter layer formed from InP, and the emitter layer being doped n-type. The base layer formed of indium gallium arsenide (InGaAs) and grown by MOCVD, the base layer being tensile strained and graded, and the base layer being doped p-type with carbon. A lattice mismatch, for at least a portion of the base layer, between the substrate and the base material is greater than 0.2%.
