Abstract
In this paper we report growth, fabrication and characterization of In0.52Al0.4sAs/In0.53Ga0.47As/InAs0.3P0.7 composite channel HEMTs with a gate length of 0.25 μm. In comparison with InAlAs/InGaAs/InP composite channel HEMTs, these devices have better band structure for transferring electrons to the composite channel under high electric field, thus exhibit excellent DC and microwave performance with a peak extrinsic transconductance of 888.3 mS/mm, an fT of 115 GHz, and an fmax of 137 GHz. To our knowledge, this is the first report of InAlAs/InGaAs/InAsP composite channel HEMTs. The fT is the highest ever reported for any composite channel HEMTs with the same gate length.
