Current Dependence of Small Signal Base - Collector Capacitance in Microwave AlGaAs/GaAs HBTs
1994
The current dependence of small signal base-collector capacitance, C bc and base series resistance, R b , extracted directly from S-parameters, has been investigated in microwave n-p-n AlGaAs/GaAs HBTs. It is found that the magnitude of C bc at V ce =3V in our devices is relatively constant at low current densities but reduces at current density of 2×10 3 A/cm 2 and then increases rapidly at a critical value of 3×10 4 A/cm 2 . The results obtained are compared with a physics based analytical model and shown to exhibit good agreement.
