InGaAs field-effect transistors with submicron gates for K-band applications
1992
Depletion mode InGaAs microwave power MISFETs with 0.7 mu m gate lengths and 0.2 mm gate widths have been fabricated using an epitaxial process. The devices employed a plasma deposited silicon dioxide gate insulator. The RF power performance at 18 GHz, 20 GHz, and 23 GHz is presented. An output power density of 1.04 W/mm with a corresponding power gain and power-added efficiency of 3.7 dB and 40%, respectively, was obtained at 18 GHz. This is the highest output power density obtained for an InGaAs based transistor on InP at K-band. Record output power densities for an InGaAs MISFET were also demonstrated to the stable within 3% over 17 hours of continuous operation at 18 GHz. >
