Abstract
A fully self-aligned InP/GaInAs double heterostructure transistor has been fabricated using a substitutional emitter process. The small-signal current gain was typically 10-30 with an f T of 27 GHz. The maximum f T=27 GHz occurred at current densities of 7×104 A cm-2, and the associated f max was 20 GHz, the highest value obtained for InP-based bipolar transistors to date
