摘要
AlGaN/GaN heterojunction bipolar transistors (HBTs) with a graded emitter-base junction have been grown and fabricated. The epitaxial structures were grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition on (0001) sapphire substrates. The HBT devices with an emitter size of 60 x 60 mu m(2) exhibit well controlled current-voltage characteristics and Gummel plots and achieve a common-emitter current gain in the range beta = 4 - 10 and a common-emitter offset voltage V-CEoff = 4V at room temperature.
