摘要
A composite step-graded collector of InP/InGaAs/InP DHBT has been investigated for minimised carrier blocking. The optimised collector has the following sub-layers: a 100 Angstrom n InGaAs layer; three 200 Angstrom n InGaAsP layers; and a 100 Angstrom, n = 3 x 10(17) cm(-3) InP layer, and the rest are n InP. The InGaAsP layers should be chosen to give approximately equal band offset at the heterointerfaces.
