Quantum simulations results are shown of GBHTs with ideal graphene/Si–Ge interfaces.
GBHTs can potentially outperform optimized HBTs by a 2.8 larger cut-off frequency.
The Si/Ge crystal orientation has a negligible effect on the GBHT performance.
The doping density can be tailored to maximize the device performance.
THz operation is predicted for Si-based GBHT, provided base parasitics are minimized.
