High-performance silicon-germanium technology

This paper will focus on the various and ubiquitous uses of silicon-germanium (SiGe) in high-performance silicon-based semiconductor technology. SiGe can now qualify as a mature technology - it is almost 20 years since the first SiGe HBT work. It is 10 years since the qualification of SiGe as a manufacturable silicon technology in a high-volume silicon fabricator
