  • Abstract
    AlGaN/GaN High Electron Mobility Transistors(HEMTs) were developed with an achievable fmax of 138GHz. A 6.4mm gate periphery device was thereafter designed with pre-match circuits on the die and matching circuits on an alumina substrate at Ka-band. A saturated output power of 18.5W was achieved at 31GHz which to the best of our knowledge is the highest ever reported at Ka-band.
