  • Abstract
    High-performance pseudomorphic InP/InxGa1-xAs/InP backside-doped split-channel heterostructure field-effect transistors (BDSCh-HFETs) with a strained undoped In0.75Ga0.25P Schottky barrier enhancement layer are reported. Devices with mushroom-shaped gates (LG=0.25 μm) demonstrated at 300 K maximum extrinsic transconductances of gm=510 mS/mm and current cutoff frequencies of fT=102 GHz coupled with off-state drain-source breakdown voltages of VDSbr=10 V. At 18 GHz a unilateral power gain of 25.6 dB was measured, corresponding to fmax>200 GHz
