  • Abstract
    A novel InAlAs/InGaAs heterojunction FET (HJFET), with an AlAs/InAs superlattice inserted between an InAlAs Schottky layer and an InAlAs donor layer, is proposed. The developed device exhibited initial DC characteristics identical to those of the conventional lattice-matched HJFET and improved thermal stability owing to the inserted superlattice layer acting as a barrier against impurity diffusion
