A bipolar transistor in which the occurrence of Kirk effect is suppressed when a high current is injected into the bipolar transistor and a method of fabricating the bipolar transistor are described. The bipolar transistor includes a first collector region of a first conductive type having high impurity concentration, a second collector region of a first conductive type which has high impurity concentration and is formed on the first collector region, a base region of a second conductive type being formed a predetermined portion of the second collector region, and an emitter region of a first conductive type being formed in the base region. The bipolar transistor further includes the third collector region, which has higher impurity concentration than the second collector region, at the bottom of the base region. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the base region from extending toward the second collector region due to the third collector region when a high current is injected into the bipolar transistor, thereby improving the capability of driving a current of the bipolar transistor and preventing the occurrence of Kirk effect even during the injection of a high current.

Carbon nanotubes for use in a fuel cell, a method for fabricating the same, and a fuel cell using the carbon nanotubes for its electrode are provided. The internal and external walls of the carbon nanotubes are doped with nano-sized metallic catalyst particles uniformly to a degree of 0.3-5 mg/cm2. The carbon nanotubes are grown over a carbon substrate using chemical vapor deposition or plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition. Since the carbon nanotubes have a large specific surface area, and metallic catalyst particles are uniformly distributed over the internal and external walls thereof, the reaction efficiency in an electrode becomes maximal when the carbon nanotubes are used for the electrode of a fuel cell. The carbon nanotubes fabricated using the method can be applied to form a large electrode. The carbon nanotubes grown over the carbon substrate can be readily applied to an electrode of a fuel cell, providing economical advantages and simplifying the overall electrode manufacturing process. A fuel cell using as the carbon nanotubes for its electrode provides improved performance.
