Book Description
The definitive hands-on guide to heterojunction bipolar transistors In recent years, heterojunction bipolar transistor (HBT) technology has become an intensely researched area in universities and industry worldwide. Boasting superior performance over silicon bipolar transistors with its combined high speed, high linearity, and high power requirements, the III-V HBT is fast becoming a major player in wireless communication, power amplifiers, mixers, and frequency synthesizers. Handbook of III-V Heterojunction Bipolar Transistors presents a comprehensive, systematic reference for this cutting-edge technology. In one self-contained volume, it covers virtually every HBT topic imaginable—introductory and advanced, theoretical and practical—from device physics, to design issues, to HBT performance in digital and analog circuits. It features: A user-friendly, integrated approach to HBTs and circuit design that can be applied in diverse disciplines A discussion of factors determining transistor operation, including thermal properties, failure mechanisms, high-frequency measurements and models, switching characteristics, noise and distortion, and modern device fabrications Over 800 illustrations, showing how to use concepts and equations in the real world An introduction to device physics and semiconductor basics Many worked-out examples and end-of-chapter problem sets Fully developed mathematical derivations Handbook of III-V Heterojunction Bipolar Transistors is an important reference for practicing engineers and researchers in cellular wireless communication and microwave-millimeter electronics as well as for wireless circuit design engineers. It is also extremely useful for advanced undergraduate and graduate students studying advanced semiconductor and microwave circuits.

The RF and Microwave Handbook - 3 Volume Set
Author: Mike Golio
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 1439833230
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 2193
Book Description
By 1990 the wireless revolution had begun. In late 2000, Mike Golio gave the world a significant tool to use in this revolution: The RF and Microwave Handbook. Since then, wireless technology spread across the globe with unprecedented speed, fueled by 3G and 4G mobile technology and the proliferation of wireless LANs. Updated to reflect this tremendous growth, the second edition of this widely embraced, bestselling handbook divides its coverage conveniently into a set of three books, each focused on a particular aspect of the technology. Six new chapters cover WiMAX, broadband cable, bit error ratio (BER) testing, high-power PAs (power amplifiers), heterojunction bipolar transistors (HBTs), as well as an overview of microwave engineering. Over 100 contributors, with diverse backgrounds in academic, industrial, government, manufacturing, design, and research reflect the breadth and depth of the field. This eclectic mix of contributors ensures that the coverage balances fundamental technical issues with the important business and marketing constraints that define commercial RF and microwave engineering. Focused chapters filled with formulas, charts, graphs, diagrams, and tables make the information easy to locate and apply to practical cases. The new format, three tightly focused volumes, provides not only increased information but also ease of use. You can find the information you need quickly, without wading through material you don’t immediately need, giving you access to the caliber of data you have come to expect in a much more user-friendly format.

Handbook of Advanced Plasma Processing Techniques
Author: R.J. Shul
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3642569897
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 664
Book Description
Pattern transfer by dry etching and plasma-enhanced chemical vapor de position are two of the cornerstone techniques for modern integrated cir cuit fabrication. The success of these methods has also sparked interest in their application to other techniques, such as surface-micromachined sen sors, read/write heads for data storage and magnetic random access memory (MRAM). The extremely complex chemistry and physics of plasmas and their interactions with the exposed surfaces of semiconductors and other materi als is often overlooked at the manufacturing stage. In this case, the process is optimized by an informed "trial-and-error" approach which relies heavily on design-of-experiment techniques and the intuition of the process engineer. The need for regular cleaning of plasma reactors to remove built-up reaction or precursor gas products adds an extra degree of complexity because the interaction of the reactive species in the plasma with the reactor walls can also have a strong effect on the number of these species available for etching or deposition. Since the microelectronics industry depends on having high process yields at each step of the fabrication process, it is imperative that a full understanding of plasma etching and deposition techniques be achieved.

Compact Modeling
Author: Gennady Gildenblat
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9048186145
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 531
Book Description
Most of the recent texts on compact modeling are limited to a particular class of semiconductor devices and do not provide comprehensive coverage of the field. Having a single comprehensive reference for the compact models of most commonly used semiconductor devices (both active and passive) represents a significant advantage for the reader. Indeed, several kinds of semiconductor devices are routinely encountered in a single IC design or in a single modeling support group. Compact Modeling includes mostly the material that after several years of IC design applications has been found both theoretically sound and practically significant. Assigning the individual chapters to the groups responsible for the definitive work on the subject assures the highest possible degree of expertise on each of the covered models.
