Abstract

Structures for a heterojunction bipolar transistor and methods of forming a structure for a heterojunction bipolar transistor. A first heterojunction bipolar transistor includes a first emitter, a first collector, and a first base layer having a portion positioned between the first emitter and the first collector. A second heterojunction bipolar transistor includes a second emitter, a second collector, and a second base layer having a portion positioned between the second emitter and the second collector. The first and second base layers each comprise silicon-germanium, the first base layer includes a first germanium profile, and the second base layer includes a second germanium profile that is identical to the first germanium profile.
