  • Abstract
    A new technique for the measurement of the electron saturation velocity in GaAs FET\´s is proposed using the "end" resistance measurement. The measurements performed on 1.3-µm gate-length ion-implanted GaAs MESFET\´s lead to the values of the saturation velocity ranging from 1 to 1.3 × 105m/s.
