Abstract

Abstract A heterojunction bipolar transistor comprising a semiconductor substrate of a first conductive-type, a first conductive-type layer of 3c-SiC, a second conductive-type layer of Si and another first conductive-type layer of 3c-SiC. The two first conductive-type layers serve respectively as collector region and emitter region and the second conductive-type layer serves as base region, and a method for producing the same. A transistor of the present invention is effective for devices such as I 2 L circuit wherein reverse directional operation of transistor is utilized.
