Abstract :
In this paper we examine the SiGe HBT´s current-voltage characteristics where Jc is several times the Kirk current density JHC = qNepi vsat. We analyze the QS characteristics by comparing the NPN´s with different intrinsic collector doping profiles fabricated on the same wafer. Data from NPN´s made from various thicknesses and concentrations of the epi-layer are also presented
