III-V Heterostructure Devices on Silicon : Fabrication, Integration and Applications

This book covers semiconductor material basics, physics of devices used in semiconductor integrated circuit processing, and all the processing technologies used in III?V semiconductor fabrication. The content is chosen according to the needs of students as seen by a teacher and needs of practicing engineers dealing with processing issues as seen by an experienced process engineer. The book covers all aspects of the current state of the art of III?V processing with emphasis on heterojunction bipolar transistors, the volume leader technology, having grown due to the explosive growth of wireless technology. Its primary purpose is to discuss processing. Only necessary equations are derived and device behavior is discussed for the purpose of understanding device figures of merit and electrical parameters that engineers need to understand and control. All aspects of processing of active and passive devices from crystal growth to back side processing, including lithography, etching, and film deposition, are covered. New material systems based on GaN are taking a larger role on the development side. Although the etching chemistries, deposition materials, and the temperature regimes are different, similar principles apply. The text covers the most promising structures of these material systems and devices.
