Small-scaled InGaP/GaAs HBTs with WSi/Ti base electrode and buriedSiO2

This paper describes the fabrication and characteristics of small-scaled InGaP/GaAs HBTs with high-speed as well as low-current operation. To reduce both the emitter size S_E and the base-collector capacitance C_BC simultaneously, the HBTs are fabricated by using WSi/Ti as the base electrode and by burying SiO₂ in the extrinsic base-collector region under the base electrode. WSi/Ti simplifies and facilitates processing to fabricate a small base electrode, and makes it possible to reduce the width of the base contact to less than 0.4 μm without the large increase in the base resistance. The DC current gain of 20 is obtained for an HBT with S _E of 0.3×1.6 μm² due to the suppression of emitter size effect by using InGaP as the emitter material. An HBT with SE of 0.6×4.6 μm² exhibited f_T of 138 GHz and f_max of 275 GHz at I_C of 4 mA; and an HBT with SE of 0.3×1.6 μm² exhibited f_T of 96 GHz and f_max of 197 GHz at I_C of 1 mA. These results indicate the great potential of these HBTs for high-speed and low-power circuit applications
