Abstract
The large-signal nonlinear load-pull characteristics of power GaAs MESFETs fabricated with uniform, ion-implanted, and lo-hi-lo doping profiles are calculated theoretically and compared. The calculation is performed using a load-pull simulator in conjunction with a physics-based, analytic device model. The device and circuit models are interfaced using a harmonic balance routine.<>
