Abstract :
The temperature dependence of the characteristics of ion-implanted GaAs MESFETs has been studied. The observed effects are mainly due to the p-n-junction-loke interface between the channel active layer and the semi-insulatning substrate. Good agreement between theoretical calculations and the experimental results is obtained.
