Transistor having high f{hd t {b at low currents

摘要

A transistor structure capable of high frequency operation with low collector currents is obtained by fabricating the transistor using nitride techniques to minimize the emitter area and base width area beyond that obtainable by conventional masking techniques. The emitter is surrounded on three sides by low capacitance dielectric which reduces its emitter-to-collector capacitance and hence improves high frequency performance.
