  • Abstract
    In this paper a new expression for the calculation of the transfer current and the corresponding normalized hole charge in the HICUM/L0 model is presented, which leads to a significantly improved description of the collector current in the high current range and the quasi saturation and extends the validity of the HICUM/L0 from the low and medium current range to the high current range.
