摘要
We report the realization of 0.3-mu m emitter InP/GaAsSb/InP DHBTs with cutoff frequencies f(T) = 365 GHz and f(MAX) = 501 GHz. Our devices were implemented with a 15-nm C-doped graded base and a 125-nm InP collector and feature a peak current gain beta = 35, with a base sheet resistance R(SH) = 1160 Omega/sq. The present transistors are the first InP/GaAsSb DHBTs to feature f(MAX) > 500 GHz, according to three extraction schemes. The present transistor performance is limited by an undepleted collector layer associated with a doping tail extending from the subcollector.
