Popis: The first report is presented on the RF operation of AlGaN channel transistor with Al-composition above 80%. The reported device is a polarisation-graded field effect transistor (PolFET) featuring an ultra-wide bandgap (UWBG) AlGaN channel with Al-composition grading from 65 to 82%. Transistors with a gate length of 0.8 μm were fabricated, with a current density of 265 mA/mm, the highest observed for AlGaN channel transistor with Al-composition above 80%, and f T/f MAX of 5.4/14.2 GHz. This demonstration of RF operation of polarisation-graded transistor provides a direction for achieving ultra-wide bandgap AlGaN based devices for high performance RF and power switching applications.
