摘要: A frequency domain model of the common emitter S21 parameter a junction transistor is derived which includes effect minority carrier transit time through active device. Using this it demonstrated that can be measured using scattering parameters. S-parameter used to predict neutron induced gain degradation. prediction accuracy approximately 5% demonstrated.
