A new superconducting-base transistor
Abstract
The continuing search for a good cryogenic transitor has led to a new proposal, the superconducting-base semiconductor-isolated transistor (SUBSIT). This three-terminal device is expected to have characteristics very similar to those of bipolar transistors, but at millivolt operating levels. The concepts involved in the SUBSIT, proposed fabrication techniques, and theoretical results for its DC and high-frequency characteristics are discussed.
