Abstract:
After the longitudinal structure of Si/SiGe HBT is determined, the bad noise performance is mainly caused by the high base resistance of the device, and the large mesa area of base or emitter leads to the poor frequency characteristics. In order to improve the noise and frequency features, both the ion implantation and the buried metal self-aligned technique were used during the fabrication procedure. Compared to the traditional fabrication, ion implantation can reduce the extrinsic base resistance, the buried metal self-aligned technique can decrease the contact resistance of the electrode lead and reduce the area of the electrode mesa. Basing on this, the minimum noise figure and the cut off frequency of the Si/SiGe HBT were tested. The results indicate that the noise performance and frequency performance of the device are improved apparently than before.
