Composite bipolar and field effect carrier domain devices

The distributed nature of devices has generally not been advantageously utilized by integrated circuit designers. Such effects have been regarded as parasitic and efforts to minimize their presence have allowed I.C. designers to proceed along design rules and philosophies little modified from those established for discrete circuits. One area that fully employs distributed properties of the device structure is that of Carrier Domain Devices (CDD's). The purpose of this paper is to present an analysis of CDD's based on Green's Functions, and to discuss some applications.
