  • Abstract
    Transport and noise in nanoscale SiGe HBTs are investigated by classical TCAD tools and full solutions of the more physics-based Boltzmann equation. The more scaled the transistor is, the more quasi-ballistic is the transport and the classical TCAD models become less and less accurate.
