Abstract
Structures for a heterojunction bipolar transistor and methods of forming a structure for a heterojunction bipolar transistor. The structure comprises a first semiconductor layer including a first portion, a second portion, and a third portion between the first portion and the second portion, a first terminal including a first semiconductor region on the first portion of the first semiconductor layer, a second terminal including a second semiconductor region on the second portion of the first semiconductor layer, an intrinsic base laterally disposed between the first terminal and the second terminal, and an extrinsic base on the intrinsic base. The intrinsic base includes a doped region in the third portion of the first semiconductor layer, and the doped region has a dopant depth profile with a dopant concentration that is asymmetrical relative to the first terminal and the second terminal.
