  • Abstract
    An interdigitated silicon bipolar transistor with 0.5 micrometer emitter width and 2 micrometer emitter-emitter pitch has been fabricated which has a measured Fmax greater than 30 GHz. Low phase noise YIG-tuned oscillators with fundamental frequency bands of 4-18 and 8-22 GHz have been demonstrated using this transistor.
