  • Abstract
    The contact and external series resistances play an important role in the performance of modern 0.1-0.2 μm HEMT´s. It is not possible to include these resistances directly into the Monte Carlo simulations. Here we describe a simple and efficient way to include the external series resistances into the Monte Carlo results of the intrinsic device simulations. Examples of simulation results are given for a 0.2 μm pseudomorphic HEMT
