Abstract

The impact of the collector vertical scaling on the tradeoff between f _t and f _max, with SiGe Heterojunction Bipolar Transistors (BPT) of ∼300 GHz performance was discussed. Its impact on the avalanche breakdown behavior of the devices was also discussed. It was observed that the SIC dose variation affects f _T and f _max in opposite directions in 300 GHz SiGe HBTs. The SIC dose variation can be exploited to selectively optimize the devices for either f _T or f _max, depending on the requirement from a given application.
