Abstract
A heterojunction type bi-polar transistor which has a heterojunction in the boundary between an intrinsic base region and an external base region to thereby eliminate the periphery effect and accordingly obtain a high current amplification factor.
Claims1
A transistor, said transistor formed as a heterojunction collector-top type bi-polar transistor, said transistor having an emitter region, intrinsic and external base regions, and a collector region formed on a compound semiconductor substrate, and a heterojunctin structure forming a boundary between said intrinsic base region formed adjacent said external base region, wherein said transistor has a substrate, an emitter region formed on said substrate, and a collector region formed on top of said emitter region, said intrinsic base region formed between said emitter and collector regions.
