Abstract :
Deep-submicrometer AlGaN/GaN HEMTs with integrated slant field plates have been fabricated. Simulation showed this technology had the ability to minimize both the dc-RF dispersion and parasitic capacitance. Prototype device results demonstrated an excellent millimeter-wave power density of 4.9 W/mm with a power-added efficiency of 45% at 30 GHz at a drain bias of 30 V.
