            Abstract : 
GaInAsP/InP heterojunction bipolar transistors with a double layer base were demonstrated with a direct current gain of 1100 at a collector current density of 110 A/cm2. In these particular devices the minority carriers in the base can be transported not only by diffusion but also by drifting.
