Collector-pedestal InGaAs/InP DHBTs fabricated in a single-growth, triple-implant process

This letter reports InP/In/sub 0.53/Ga/sub 0.47/As/InP double heterojunction bipolar transistors (DHBTs) employing an N/sup +/ subcollector and N/sup +/ collector pedestal-formed by blanket Fe and patterned Si ion implants, intended to reduce the extrinsic collector-base capacitance C/sub cb/ associated with the device footprint. The Fe implant is used to compensate Si within the upper 130 nm of the N/sup +/ subcollector that lies underneath the base ohmic contact, as well as compensate the /spl sim/1-7/spl times/10/sup -7/ C/cm/sup 2/ surface charge at the interface between the indium phosphide (InP) substrate and the N/sup $/collector drift layer. By implanting the subcollector, C/sub cb/ associated with the base interconnect pad is eliminated, and when combined with the Fe implant and selective Si pedestal implant, further reduces C/sub cb/ by creating a thick extrinsic collector region underneath the base contact. Unlike previous InP heterojunction bipolar transistor collector pedestal processes, multiple epitaxial growths are not required. The InP DHBTs here have simultaneous 352-GHz f/sub /spl tau// and 403-GHz f/sub max/. The dc current gain /spl beta//spl ap/38, BV/sub ceo/=6.0 V, BV/sub cbo/=5.4 V, and I/sub cbo/<50 pA at V/sub cb/=0.3 V.     

$hbox{In}_{0.53}hbox{Ga}_{0.47}hbox{As}$ Channel MOSFETs With Self-Aligned InAs Source/Drain Formed by MEE Regrowth

Abstract-We report Al₂O₃Zln_0.53Ga_0.47As MOSFETs having both self-aligned in situ Mo source/drain ohmic contacts and self-aligned InAs source/drain n⁺ regions formed by MBE regrowth. The device epitaxial dimensions are small, as is required for 22-nm gate length MOSFETs; a 5-nm In_0.53Ga_0.47As channel with an In_0.4sAl_0.52As back confinement layer and the n⁺⁺ source/drain junctions do not extend below the 5-nm channel. A device with 200-nm gate length showed I_D = 0.95 mA/mum current density at V_GS = 4.0 V and g_m = 0.45 mS/mum peak transconductance at V_DS = 2.0 V.
