摘要:
In order to improve the thermal characteristics of SOI SiGe HBT, a novel structure of SiO2/Si3N4/SiO2 insulators is proposed, considered that the thermal conductivity of Si3N4 is much higher than that of Sift,. With the aid of the thermal-electrical model of SOI SiGe HST with SiO2/Si3N4/SiO2 insulators, the thermal characteristics of the device is studied. The thermal resistance (R-th), thermal time constant (tau), and thermal capacity (C-th) are adopt to represent the steady-state and transient thermal characteristics, respectively. It is shown that R-th, tau, and C-th of the novel device are decreased by 19.6%, 24.14%, and 5.36%, respectively, when compared with that of traditional SOI SiGe HBT with SiO2 insulator. In addition, for the novel device, the improvement of R-th and tau is kept with the increase of the dissipated power from 2mW to 12mW, Furthermore, for the novel device, the influence of Si3N4 thickness on R-th and x is also studied. All of R-th, tau, and C-th are decreased with the increase of the thickness of the Si3N4 (tsoka). Both the trend of R-th and tau can be approximated by a linear function with t(Si3N4), while the trend of C-th can be approximated by an exponential function. The results above provides a guideline to the improvement of the thermal characteristics of conventional SOI SiGe HBTs, making the device more suitable for high-temperature applications.
