  • Abstract
    The concepts, technology and the present experimental limits of performance of heterojunction modulation doped field effect transistors are covered. Both lattice-matched and strained, pseudomorphic quantum well channels on GaAs substrates, as well as lattice-matched quantum well channels on InP substrates are included. Power gain frequency limits to 450 GHz, and noise figures as low as .8-.9 db at 60 GHz are presented for 300K operation of the latter devices.
