Recent advances in communication, radar and computational systems demand very high performance electronic circuits. Heterojunction bipolar transistors (HBTs) have the potential of providing a more efficient solution to many key system requirements through intrinsic device advantages than competing technologies. This paper reviews the present status of GaAs and InP-based HBT technologies and their applications to digital, analog, microwave and multifunction circuits. It begins with a brief review of HBT device concepts and critical epitaxial growth parameters. Issues important for device modeling and fabrication technologies are discussed. The paper then highlights the performance and the potential impact of HBT devices and integrated circuits in various application areas. Key prospects for future HBT development are also addressed.

ABSTRACTThe control of p-type dopants is very important in producing high performance minority carrier devices such as heterojunction bipolar transistors (HBT) and lasers. In this study, an electrical characterization technique is described which is very sensitive to the p-type dopant profile in a heterojunction. Both the placement of the dopant, i.e. the as-grown profile, and thermal diffusion effects have been investigated. The factors which control the initial placement and subsequent diffusion of the dopant species have been determined and used to produce device-quality GaAs/Al0.30Ga0.70As p+/n heterojunctions.
