Abstract

Optimization of the trapezoidal Ge profile to minimize base transit time of the SiGe bipolar transistor was examined. A closed-form equation to find the optimum point of the trapezoidal Ge profile for base transit time minimization as a function of temperature is derived. Experimental data published in the literature are used to compare the model predictions with measurement.
