Abstract
A newly designed inverted delta-doped V-shaped GaInP/In/sub x/Ga/sub 1-x/As/GaAs pseudomorphic high electron mobility transistor (PHEMT) has been successfully fabricated and studied. For a 1/spl times/100 /spl mu/m/sup 2/ device, a high gate-to-drain breakdown voltage over 30 V at 300 K is found. In addition, a maximum transconductance of 201 mS/mm with a broad operation regime for 3 V of gate bias (565 mA/mm of drain current density), a very high output drain saturation current density of 826 mA/mm, and a high DC gain ratio of 575 are obtained. Furthermore, good temperature-dependent performances at the operating temperature ranging from 300 to 450 K are found. The unity current gain cutoff frequency f/sub T/ and maximum oscillation frequency f/sub max/ up to 16 and 34 GHz are obtained, respectively. Meanwhile, the studied device shows the significantly wide and flat gate bias operation regime (3 V) for microwave performances.
