  • Abstract
    Deep level transient spectroscopy has been used to characterise the traps found in MBE grown n-AlGaAs/GaAs HEMTs. In addition to DX centres two further traps common to different HEMT structures are reported. The authors have identified an electron trap (Ea=0.6 eV) distributed nonuniformly in the AlGaAs donor layer, and an interface state trap (Ea=0.55 eV) located close to the two dimensional electron gas.
