摘要：
Analytical expressions for conduction band edges are presented for compositionally graded Heterojunction Bipolar Transistors (HBT's) taking the displacement of the P-N junction relative to material junction into account. In order to demonstrate the effect of P-N junction displacement on the band structure the expressions are applied to AlGaAs/GaAs material system. It is shown that displacement of P-N junction into the wide bandgap (referred to as EB+case) causes barriers whereas displacement into narrow bandgap semiconductor (referred to as EB- case) leads to dips in the conduction band. In EB+ case linear grading (LG) seems to offer a lower turnon voltage compared to parabolic grading (PG).
