Abstract :
Quarter-micrometre channel doped GalnP/lnGaAs HFETs with high current density show a noise figure comparable to that of PM-HEMTs (0.6 dB at 12 GHz). Owing to the high linearity of the channel doped device. The noise figure shows an extremely weak dependence on drain current and bias. The absence of DX-centres in the GaInP leads to a pure 1/f noise spectrum without Gaussian shaped generation recombination parts
