摘要：

The transport mechanism of electrons across an energy barrier in the collector of a heterojunction bipolar transistor is studied and identified as hot electron thermionic emission. Bistability between tunneling and thermionic emission was observed at 77 K and room temperature. The bistability can be suppressed by n-type doping of the heterointerface vicinity.
