Abstract :
Millimeter wave 0.1μm InP HEMT MMlCs fabricated on 100 mm InP substrates have been demonstrated at NGST. Production capability in 100 mm MBE growth, frontside processing, and backside processing has been established and is presented. MMIC performance is described for Ka-band, Q-band, and W-band low noise amplifiers and for a 0.5 to 80 GHz distributed amplifier.
