In conclusion we have applied the proposed extraction method on measured data of DIMES-03 bipolar transistors of different sizes.","PeriodicalId":447762,"journal":{"name":"Bipolar/BiCMOS Circuits and Technology, 2004.

Both the cut-off frequency and maximum oscillation frequency exceeded 200 GHz when the annealing temperature was increased from 885/spl deg/C to 1000/spl deg/C. This PED process concept is based on the fact that the increased phosphorus diffusion can more than compensate for increased boron diffusion and decreased base thickness.","PeriodicalId":447762,"journal":{"name":"Bipolar/BiCMOS Circuits and Technology, 2004.
