  • Abstract
    A new structure for AlGaAs/GaAs heteroJunction bipolar transistors (HBTs) using a buried proton-implanted external collector layer and a high doped base layer is proposed. This structure has been successfully applied to achieve high performance HBTs with a cutoff frequency, fT, up to 42 GHz and a maximuxm oscillation frequency, f_{\\max } , up to 65 GHz on a 2 µm × 5 µm emitter size HBT. The highest fTof 45 GHz and f_{\\max } of 70 GHz have also been independently observed for HBTs with other sizes.
