A GAASSB/INP HBT CIRCUIT TECHNOLOGY
03 October 2005
A InP/GaAsSb/InP double-heterojunction bipolar transistor (DHBT) structure has been defined, realized by MBE epitaxy, and optimized, thanks to simulation based on in-depth physical characterizations. A circuit-oriented technology has been developed, which has been validated by the design and fabrication of a full-rate (40 GHz clock) 40 Gbit/s D-FF.
