Abstract
We have fabricated the graded-GaAsP base HBTs with InGaP emitters for the first time. It was confirmed that heavy carbon-doping into GaAsP, as well as GaAs, could be realized by using MOCVD. The measured current gain was as high as over 100 at a collector current density (J c) of 3×104 A/cm2. Furthermore, compared with the uniform-GaAs base HBTs, current-gain enhancement due to the built-in field in the base of the graded-base HBTs was also confirmed in a range of Jc=1×102 A/cm2 to 3×104 A/cm2
