摘要: Npn-type SiGe heterojunction bipolar transistors (HBT's) have high cut-off frequencies, but low breakdown voltages due to their current gain. We show that a layer in the emitter can increase base and hence voltage while collector frequency are not reduced. Simulations first experimental results clearly confirm this effect.
