Abstract
The microwave noise characteristics of AlSb/InAs HEMTs are reported for the first time. Although the noise performance is presently limited by the gate leakage current, a minimum noise figure of 1 dB at 4 GHz was measured. Simulations based on these measurements indicate that very low noise performance is achievable at drain voltages <0.5 V
