Low Turn-on Voltage InGaP/GaAsSb/GaAs DHBT Grown by MOCVD

چکیده
In this work, an InGaP/GaAsSb/GaAs DHBT with carbon doping up to 4E19/cm GaAsSb base was studied. A current gain of 115 at the collector current density of 25KA/cm2 was achieved for the Rbs of about 530ohm/sq. Over 100mV turn-on voltage and knee voltage reduction and 2/3 offset voltage were obtained for the GaAsSb based HBT compared with the standard InGaP/GaAs SHBT. The DC gain of the device is less temperature dependence (the DC gain variation is less than 3% for the temperature range from 25 degree C to 100 degree C.) due to the larger valence band discontinuity between InGaP emitter and GaAsSb base, compare with the standard InGaP/GaAs SHBT. These results indicate that GaAsSb is a great choice for the base material of a low turn-on voltage HBT.

GaAsP/InGaP heterojunction bipolar transistors grown by MOCVD
Heterojunction bipolar transistors with GaAsxP1-x bases and collectors and InyGa1-yP emitters were grown on GaAs substrates via metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD), fabricated using conventional techniques, and electrically tested. Four different GaAsxP1-x compositions were used, ranging from x = 0.825 to x = 1 (GaAs), while the InyGa1-yP composition was adjusted to remain lattice-ma...

In this paper, we report the development of a high breakdown voltage InGaP/GaAs HBT process for low-to-mid power and high-voltage power amplifier operation. To achieve the high-breakdown InGaP HBT, two different collector designs and collector-etch processes were investigated. The first device process approach uses a thick GaAs collector with low n doping. The process challenges and considerati...
متن کاملInAs=InGaP=GaAs heterojunction power Schottky rectifiers
A low-temperature (LT) grown InAs epi-layer has been applied as the gate to the dual-material structure of lattice-matched InGaP on GaAs, to make a high-temperature power rectifier. The LT molecular beam epitaxy technique enables the formation of an abrupt interface between InAs and InGaP. This heterojunction rectifier utilises the strong thermal stability of the InAs=InGaP heterojunction and t...
