Abstract :
GaAs SAINT FETs with a p-layer buried under the active layer have achieved below 10 ps/gate (9.9 ps/gate) operation for the first time in semiconductor devices. The p-layer formed by Be+ implantation is completely depleted by the built-in potential. It has successfully alleviated the short channel effects without increasing parastic capacitance.
