摘要
我们报告了硅基晶体管的fmax记录,以及硅-锗异质结双极晶体管(SiGe HBTs)的f1+ fmax第一组超过1太赫兹。在击穿电压BVCEO为1.62 V (300 K时为1.70),击穿电压BVCEO为1.62 V (300 K时为1.70)的情况下,在4.5 K(卡盘温度)下,测量了0.12倍2.5 mm - sige HBT (343 / 309 GHz)下的峰值fmax为618 GHz,底层fmax为463 GHz,产生了创纪录的fT × BVCEO产品750 GHz-V (300 K时为510 GHz-V)。对这些器件在低温下的基输运的研究表明,非平衡效应是有效的。
On the Frequency Limits of SiGe HBTs for TeraHertz Applications
We report record fmax for a silicon-based transistor, and the first combined set of f1+ fmax above one-terahertz for silicon-germanium heterojunction bipolar transistors (SiGe HBTs). Peak fmax of 618 GHz and frfloor of 463 GHz at 4.5 K (chuck temperature) were measured for a scaled 0.12 times 2.5 mum-SiGe HBT (343 / 309 GHz at 300 K), at a breakdown voltage BVCEO of 1.62 V (1.70 at 300 K), yielding a record fT x BVCEO product of 750 GHz-V (510 GHz-V at 300 K). An examination of base transport in these devices at low temperatures suggests non-equilibrium effects are operative.
