ABSTRACT:
A heat tolerant, frequency responsive transistor for use in the microwave region includes a collector region, a base region overlying the collector region, and an emitter region including an AlGaN layer overlying at least part of said base region, forming a heterojunction between said base region and said emitter region. The emitter region may include two layers. The HBT may be mounted on a SiC or sapphire substrate. The HBT may include a buffer layer between the substrate and the collector region.
