  • Abstract
    A C-doped GaInP/GaAs heterojunction bipolar transistor (HBT) grown by MOCVD using TBP and TBA is demonstrated. A current gain of 60, a cutoff frequency of 59 GHz, and a maximum oscillation frequency of 68 GHz were obtained for a 5×15 μm2 self-aligned HBT. A minimum noise figure of 1.4-2.6 dB was measured in the frequency range of 2-18 GHz. The results show that TBA and TBP are suitable MOCVD sources for growing high quality HBT materials
