  • Abstract
    An efficient optimization procedure to improve the AC performance of integrated bipolar transistors is presented. Using the same emitter and base doping profiles, a reduction of the forward transit time T f and thus a considerable improvement in the transit frequency fT (more than 33% in the peak value) are achieved by optimizing the collector dopant profile
