High-frequency operation of lateral hot-electron transistors

The high-frequency operation of a lateral hot-electron transistor (LHET) with near ballistic transport in the base and collector is considered. The high-frequency efficiency of the hot-electron transport in the base and collector are evaluated. It is shown that due to two-dimensional electron gas the high-frequency properties of the LHET collector are quite different from the properties of the hot-electron transistors with vertical structure.<
