  • Abstract
    We discuss the field collapse threshold in abrupt DHBTs in which the barrier between the base and the collector is eliminated by delta doping. A DHBT with 150 nm thick collector operating at a current density of 4 mA/mum2 is presented. We show theoretically that the carrier density at the onset of the filed collapse effect can be doubled by inserting an additional delta doped layer at the center of the collector
