Abstract

A heterojunction bipolar transistor and a method of making a heterojunction bipolar transistor. The heterojunction bipolar transistor includes: a regrown emitter region; an intrinsic base region forming a junction with the regrown emitter region; and an extrinsic base region separated from the regrown emitter region. The thickness of the extrinsic base region is greater than the thickness of the intrinsic base region.
