Abstract

A self-aligned selective-epitaxial SiGe-based heterojunction bipolar transistor (HBT) is used to fabricate a 40 Gb/s optical receiver. The SiGe-based HBT provides low parasitic capacitance and high-frequency characteristics. 3.6fF collector capacitance and 0.6fF substrate capacitance at 5 V reverse bias voltage are obtained. The cutoff frequency and the maximum oscillation frequency of the transistors with an emitter area of 0.14×1.5 μm² are 92 GHz and 108 GHz at 2 V collector-to-emitter bias, respectively. The early voltage of >100 V is suitable for analog circuits.
