Abstract

A process issue of sub-micron heterojunction bipolar transistors fabrication is described. The metal short occurred during metallization of emitter contact and succeeding wet etch is a major failure mechanism. We present the designs of experiment to identify and solve the problem. The microwave and DC performance of sub-micron Type-II DHBTs is demonstrated.
