A set of transfer and output current-voltage characteristics of a bipolar transistor with a short-period superlattice in the emitter region has been calculated. It is shown that the presence of a superlattice in the tr ansistor structure leads to the fo rmation of a negative differential conductivity region, which makes it possible to implement not only amplification, but also the generation and multiplication of high-frequency oscillations.

Computational and experimental studies of the characteristics of a high-power AlGaAs/InGaAs/GaAs DpHEMT were performed. A self-consistent numerical solution of the Schrodinger and Poisson equations was used to calculate the band diagram and the electron concentration in the channel of the transistor under study.
