Abstract
A SiGe-HBT having a base region made of SiGe mixed crystal. The base region includes: an intrinsic base region having junctions with a collector region and an emitter region; and an external base region for connecting the intrinsic base region with a base electrode. The intrinsic base region and the external base region are doped with a first impurity of a given conductivity type. The external base region is further doped with a second impurity. As the first impurity, an element smaller in atomic radius than Si (such as boron, for example) is selected, and as the second impurity, an element larger in atomic radius than the first impurity (such as Ge, In and Ga, for example) is selected.
