  • Abstract
    The drain current, transconductance, and output resistance of an InP MISFET are shown to depend strongly on the frequency and amplitude of an AC signal applied to the gate. This dependence exists even though the familiar long-term current drift effect is negligible. To explain this phenomenon a new nonequilibrium interface-trap model is proposed
