Abstract :
Avalanche breakdown voltage VB, space-charge width at breakdown WB, and C-V index n of exponentially retrograded silicon hyperabrupt p+-n junctions have been calculated for various impurity distributions. Empirical relations are obtained expressing WB, VB, and the maximum value of n in terms of impurity profile parameters of the retrograded region. Applications of these relations in the design of hyperabrupt varactors is indicated.
