  • Abstract
    By means of a Monte Carlo simulation, we have studied the collector transit region of an innovative InAs/AlSb quantum hot electron transistor constituted by a 100 nm-long InAs bulk region. This original vertical transport device has the potential to efficiently exploit the unrivalled transport properties of InAs to reach THz frequencies.
