Abstract
Double heterojunction bipolar transistors based on the AlxGa1-xAs/GaAs1-ySby system are examined. The base layer consists of narrow band gap GaAs1-ySby and the emitter and collector consist of wider band gap AlxGa1-xAs. Preliminary experimental results show that AlGaAs/GaAsSb/GaAs DHBTs exhibit a current gain of five and a maximum collector current density of 5*104 A/cm2.
