Abstract :
A HBT self-aligned technology with a perpendicular side-wall mesa has been adopted in microwave HBT fabrication by virtue of a high selectivity chemical wet etchant. Principal features and technological processes of the method are discussed. The gap of ~0.1¿m between the emitter mesa edge and base contact metallization edge has been formed repeatedly by the method. The experimental results of the developed microwave HBT for test purpose is given.
