Abstract
We report the fabrication and characterization of pseudomorphic GaAs DHHEMTs. Higher current level and broader Gm-Id s characteristics can be obtained simultaneously using DHHEMTs compared to those of SHHEMTs. For 1.25 μm gate-length devices, the average fT is 12 GHz and fmax is greater than 50 GHz. The high linearity, current drivability and fmax show that DHHEMTs are attractive for applications such as wireless communication
