Abstract
DC current gain greater than one was demonstrated in GaN tunneling hot electron transistors. At an emitter-base bias of 8 V, dc current gain is increased to 2.8. The results show the promise of GaN tunneling hot electron transistors for the next generation of high-frequency amplifiers. This work is funded by Office of Naval Research under the DATE MURI project (Program manager: Dr. Paul Maki).
