Abstract

This Poster describes the work done in a joint effort Research and Development Program with a leading University, with funding from the state, to develop a heterojunction bipolar transistor (HBT) epitaxial wafer screening tool. A computerized characteristics to HBT performance will be described.

Photoreflectance data from about twenty HBT wafers that have been grown and have had test transistors fabricated from the wafers will be analyzed to determine the bandgap of the epitaxial materials and the electric fields.

Comparison with previous works will be made in an attempt to reach a unified agreement in understanding that may lead to an ASTM test method.
