Cryogenic operation of silicon-germanium heterojunction bipolar transistors and its relation to scaling and optimization

The objective of the proposed work is to study the behavior of SiGe HBTs at cryogenic temperatures and its relation to device scaling and optimization. Not only is cryogenic operation of these devices required by space missions, but characterizing their cryogenic behavior also helps to investigate t...
