Abstract :
InAs/AlSb HEMTs with gate lengths in the range 225-335 nm processed on the same wafer have been investigated with respect to DC and RF performance. While the magnitude of the transconductance gm was similar for all gate lengths, the shortest gate length HEMT exhibited the highest extrinsic maximum frequency of oscillation fmax and extrinsic current gain cut-off frequency fT of 115 GHz and 165 GHz, respectively.
