Silicon-germanium Heterojunction Bipolar Transistors

This resource provides engineers with a comprehensive treatment of silicon-germanium heterojunction bipolar transistors (SiGe HBT), a semi-conductor technology that is expected to revolutionise the communications industry by offering low-cost, high-speed solutions for emerging communications needs. It offers practitioners and students a from-the-ground-up understanding of SiGe HBT devices and technology from a very broad perspective. The text covers motivation, history, materials, fabrication, d
