摘要：
In this paper, we have been investigating both static and Low-Frequency noise (LF noise) characteristics of metallic emitter Si-SiGe:C Heterojunction Bipolar Transistors (HBTs) based on a 0.13 mu m technology developed by ST Microelectronics. This study is based on a comparison between the standard mono-emitter process and the metal emitter process. Static results confirm an increase in IB with an I-C constant and an increase in the figure-of-merit f(T)x BVCE0, We found a decrease in the 1/f noise level for the metallic emitter HBTs. The base current noise spectral density SIB evolves quadratically with I-B and K-F is found to be inversely proportional to A(E). These static and noise results will be presented and discussed. In particular, we emphasize the role of the cobalt silicidation on the excess noise.
