Abstract :
A lateral pnp bipolar transistor structure has been realised in n-GaAs material using ion implantation. Be ions have been implanted to form the emitter and collector. Proton implantation has been used to reduce the area of the parasitic emitter-substrate diode. First results of a transistor with a current gain of 0.5 are shown.
