  • Abstract
    A novel three-terminal device is proposed in which the base represents an undoped quantum well in a graded-gap heterostructure. The base conductivity is provided by a two-dimensional electron gas induced by the collector field. The intrinsic delay time is estimated to be about 1 ps at room temperature with a common-base current gain close to unity.
