ABSTRACT:
A C-up HBT is made to operate in the microwave/millimeter frequency range by self-aligning the collector uprisers on the base relative to proton damaged emitter regions and the base contacts which minimizes carrier injection into the extrinsic base. The use of about 7-10% indium in the indium gallium arsenide base is sufficient to stop the FREON-12 etch at the base after totally etching through the collector and single self-aligning mask.
