High-performance antimonide-based heterostructure backward diodes for millimeter-wave detection
TL;DR: In this article, small-area antimonide-based backward diodes for zero-bias millimeter-wave detection have been fabricated using high-resolution I-line stepper lithography, allowing accurate control of the small device active area required for operation at W-band.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Reliability and failure criteria for AlInAs/GaInAs/InP HBTs
TL;DR: In this article, the authors have performed accelerated temperature and bias lifetests on single-heterojunction bipolar transistors (HBTs) and reported results from stress tests up to 6000 hours Failure criteria defined by base-emitter turn-on voltage (V/sub BE/) and dc-gain (/spl beta/) degradation demonstrate a robust technology with activation energies (E/sub a/) greater than 11 eV and extracted median-time-to-failure (MTTF) in excess of 10/sup 7/ hours at T/sub j/=100
Journal ArticleDOI
Temperature dependence of Sb-heterostructure millimetre-wave diodes
TL;DR: In this paper, the current against voltage characteristics of Sb-heterostructure zero-bias millimetre-wave diodes were measured from 15 to 81/spl deg/C.
