摘要
GaN/InGaN double heterojunction bipolar transistors with a regrown p-InGaN extrinsic base have been fabricated on SiC substrates. The maximum common-emitter current gain exceeds 2000 at the collector current of 15 mA for a 50 mumx30 mum device. In addition, the offset voltage in the common-emitter current-voltage characteristics was reduced from 5 to 1 V. This indicates that the large offset voltage reported previously was mainly due to the degraded base ohmic characteristics. The regrowth of p-InGaN is effective for improving the characteristics of nitride heterojunction bipolar transistors. (C) 2003 American Institute of Physics.
