Abstract
Sulphur implantation into semi-insulating GaAs has been used to fabricate 1,5µ-gate-MESFETs showing microwave gain equivalent to epitaxial FETs (MAG = 10 dB at 10 GHz) but higher noise. Room temperature implantation of S at an energy of 30 keV and a dose of 5.1012cm-2sputtered SiO2 and Si3 N4 as encapsulants and heat treatments from 820 to 900°C have been used. Electrical activation was found to, depend critically on the substrate material. Si3 N4 -encapsulation gave slightly higher electrical activation than SiO2 .
