Abstract
Enhancement-mode pseudomorphic In <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">0.22</sub> Ga <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">0.78</sub> As-channel MOSFETs with an ultrathin native InAlP oxide gate dielectric are demonstrated. The gate dielectric, a 3.5-nm-thick oxide grown by wet thermal oxidation from epitaxial InAlP, reduces the gate leakage below that of HFETs based on the same epitaxial structure by more than 10 <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">5</sup> times. The devices operate in enhancement mode, with 0.25-μm gate length devices exhibiting a measured threshold voltage of 0.25 V, a peak intrinsic transconductance of 245 mS/mm, and a saturation drain current density of 165 mA/mm. A record-high current gain cutoff frequency <i xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">f</i> <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">T</sub> of 60 GHz has also been achieved. These results indicate the applicability of InAlP oxide-based InGaAs-channel MOSFETs for use in single power supply RF applications.
