Abstract

Monolithic integration of resonant tunneling diodes (RTDs) and high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) is an important development direction of ultra-high speed integrated circuit. A kind of top-RTD and bottom-HEMT material structure is epitaxied on InP substrate through molecular beam epitaxy. Based on wet chemical etching, metal lift-off and air bridge interconnection technology, RTD and HEMT are fabricated simultaneously. The peak-to-valley current ratio of RTD is 7.7 and the peak voltage is 0.33 V at room temperature. The pinch-off voltage is −0.5 V and the current gain cut-frequency is 30 GHz for a 1.0 μm gate length depletion mode HEMT. The two devices are conformable in current magnitude, which is suitable for the construction of various RTD/HEMT monolithic integration logic circuits.
