HBT
Trade off gain for higher speed
Higher base dopinglower base resistancereduced Early effectless trouble with punch throughbase can be made thinner -> faster transistors
Because of higher base doping, a higher collector doping is possible without punch through
lower collector resistance

Heterojunction bipolar transistors
Fastest InP/InGaAs HBT's have an fT of 710 GHz.
Higher doping in the base allows for a thinner base without punch through and lower base resistance and thus higher frequency operation

Latch-up
http://www.ece.drexel.edu/courses/ECE-E431/latch-up/latch-up.html
Both BJT's conduct, creating a low resistance path between Vdd and GND. The product of the gains of the two transistors in the feedback loop, is greater than one. The result of latchup is at the minimum a circuit malfunction, and in the worst case, the destruction of the device.

Subthreshold current
If the p-concentration in the channel is low, electrons emitted into the channel by the forward biased junction diffuse across the channel without recombining.

Photo detectors
Intrinsic semiconductor = e(nn + pp) (used in copiers)
Unbiased pn junction - like a solar cell
Reverse biased pn junction - smaller capacitance, higher speed, less noise
Phototransistor - light injects carriers into the base. This forward biases the emitter base junction. High responsivity.
