InGaP/InGaAs Pseudomorphic Heterodoped-Channel FETs With a Field Plate and a Reduced Gate Length by Splitting Gate Metal

Depositing gate metal across a step undercut between the Schottky barrier layer and the insulator-like layer is employed to obtain a reduced gate length of 0.4 mum with an additional 0.6-mum field plate from a 1-mum gate window. Most dc and ac characteristics including current density (IDSS=451mA/mm), transconductance (gm,max=225mS/mm), breakdown voltages (VBD(DS)/V BD(GD)=22/-25.5V), gate-voltage...
