Abstract :
This paper presents a status of the HICUM model development activities (within the DOTFIVE project) for future technologies. Physics based scalable model libraries are realized for two of the most advanced SiGe:C HBT processes currently available. The parameter extraction methodology is described via two meaningful examples. Measurement and simulation comparisons are shown.
