A SiGe heterojunction bipolar transistor uses a silicon-germanium alloy layer as the active base material. The introduction of Ge causes a reduction of the bandgap and thus an increase in the ...
A tremendous development has taken place since then and the heterojunction bipolar transistor (HBT) has become an indispensable microwave device. At the time of this writing, three types of HBT ...
