A Numerical Method for Ge-Profile of Microwave Power Device Based on Si/Si1-x/Si

Article Preview

Abstract:

A double-mesa hetero-junction bipolar structure of NPN type microwave power device is used. The Si is chosen for emitter and collector, and Si1-xGex alloy is for base. Based on some experiment data, a numerical method is used to get an equation about forbidden band Eg via the variety composition of Ge at 300K using MATLAB, which is more precise than linearization. We also calculate the collector current density JC via the variety of VBE and the obtained equation is consistent with the experiment result. An optimum Ge composition value was found. It has practical significance for the device design and simulation.
