Abstract :
Base doping densities near 1020 cm-3 and emitter doping densities near 7*1017 cm-3 have been achieved in MOVPE HBT structures and combined with self-aligned processing resulting in fmax=94 GHz and ft=45 GHz. To the authors´ knowledge, these are the first MOVPE HBTs demonstrated to operate at millimetre-wave frequencies.
