Abstract :
A half-micrometer channel-length n+-n--n+GaAs MESFET is simulated numerically using a drift-diffusion description of electronic transport. Recently published experimental results [3], [4] show high pinchoff voltage and high transconductance. The computer simulations ascribe these values to injections of carriers into the channel.
