摘要:
An electronic device contains a substrate, a sub-collector supported by the substrate, an un-doped layer having a selectively implanted buried sub-collector and supported by the sub-collector, an As-based nucleation layer partially supported by the un-doped layer, a collector layer supported by the As-based nucleation layer, a base layer supported by the collector layer, an emitter layer and a base contact supported by the base layer, an emitter cap layer supported by the emitter layer, an emitter contact supported by the emitter cap layer, and a collector contact supported by the sub-collector. A method provides for selecting a first InP layer, forming an As-based nucleation layer on the first InP layer, and epitaxially growing a second InP layer on the As-based nucleation layer.

摘要:
A bipolar junction transistor having an emitter, a base, and a collector includes a stack of one or more layer sets adjacent the collector. Each layer set includes a first material having a first band gap, wherein the first material is highly doped, and a second material having a second band gap narrower than the first band gap, wherein the second material is at most lightly doped.
摘要:
Electronically tunable and reconfigurable hyperspectral IR detectors and methods for making the same are presented. In one embodiment, a reconfigurable hyperspectral sensor (or detector) detects radiation from about 0.4 μm to about 2 μm and beyond. This sensor is configured to be compact, and lightweight and offers hyperspectral imaging capability while providing wavelength agility and tunability at the chip-level. That is, the sensor is used to rapidly image across diverse terrain to identify man-made objects and other anomalies in cluttered environments.
摘要:
Bipolar junction transistors (BJTs) and single or double heterojunction bipolar transistors with low parasitics, and methods for making the same is presented. A transistor is fabricated such that the collector region underneath a base contact area is deactivated. This results in a drastic reduction of the base-collector parasitic capacitance, Cbc. An embodiment of the present invention provides a transistor architecture for which the base contact area can be decoupled from the collector and hence allows for dramatic reduction in the parasitics of transistors.
