  • Abstract
    We compare through numerical simulations a Si GBHT and a SiGe HBT: the fT limit of GBHTs is predicted to be more than twice as high as for HBTs assuming a transparent graphene/Si interface; if a more realistic interface model extrapolated from existing experiments is used, the fT limit drops by about two orders of magnitude.
