Abstract :
A novel FET using a 2DEG is presented. The FET has an AlAs/GaAs/AlAs single quantum well with planar doping in the centre of the GaAs layer. The conduction channels are composed of a 2DEG generated in undoped GaAs layers outside the well. The measured 2DEG concentration was 1.8¿2 à 1012cm¿2 with electron mobilities of 3500cm2/Vs at RT and 10500cm2/Vs at 77K. A 1.5¿m-gate-length FET exhibits a maximum transconductance of 174 mS/mm and a maximum current exceeding 300 mA/mm at 77K.
