ABSTRACT:
A Double Heterojunction Bipolar Transistor (DHBT) and the method of fabrication therefor. First a layered wafer is prepared on a semi-insulating GaAs substrate. The bottom wafer layer is n.sup.+ GaAs, followed by n.sub.- AlGaAs, a thin layer of n AlGaAs (which form the DHBT's collector) and a base layer of p.sup.+ GaAS. A layered plug fills a trench etched in the base layer. The bottom two plug layers are AlGaAs and the top plug layer is GaAs. Next, an emitter is ion-implanted into the plug core and an extrinsic base region is ion-implanted. Finally, base, emitter and collector contacts are formed.
