  • Abstract
    A simulation of stress-induced charge effects in AlGaAs/GaAs heterojunction bipolar transistors has been performed. The results prove that this charge does not modify the transistor´s behaviour even at high emitter stress. The charge was computed using an analytical model and the simulations have been done using a MEDICI 2-D device simulator, including the heterojunction advanced module
