Popis: A high-electron-mobility transistor (HEMT) based on InAlAs/InGaAs/InP heterostructures possessing higher breakdown characteristics is developed. An InGaAs composite channel structure, combined with completely selective forming of the double recess structure, is used in the devices. HEMTs with a T‑shaped gate 120 nm in length consist of four fingers, each 30 μm in width, exhibit a maximum transconductance of 810 mS/mm, 460-mA/mm maximum density of drain current and 8- to 10-V drain-to-gate breackdown voltage. The current-amplification cut-off frequency of transistors is over 115 GHz. Due to the enhanced breakdown voltage and the forming of a double recess structure by selective etching, the elaborated transistors are promising for application in the monolithic integrated circuits of the millimeter-wave medium power amplifiers.
