It is possible to estimate the base spreading resistance with the higher doping concentration. ‘Note that Appendix IIT only gives values for light doping. Clearly, much important information will be lost in these estimates because of the sparse information the students have to work with. For example, real HBTs using AlGaAs/GaAs suffer from surface recombination problems, and scaling of these devices to small dimensions is inhibited.

The p-n-p-n switching action depends on injection of carriers across both base regions and collection into the base regions of the opposite transistor. For example, transistor action in the p-n-p feeds majority carrier holes to the base of the n-p-n. This cannot occur with separate transistors; so, the p-n-p-n switching effect does not occur, Prob. 10.8 How does gate bias provide switching in an SCR?

Electrons generated thermally in and about jz recombine in n) and jj with injected holes. Similarly, generated holes feed recombination with injected electrons in pz and js. In absence of transistor action, current is limited to essentially the reverse saturation current of jz. In the figure below, we neglect generation compared with transport due to transistor action. Recombination takes place in m and pp, but many injected carriers are transported through the device by transistor action.
