Popis: The authors report on the state-of-the-art power performance of InP-based HEMTs (high electron mobility transistors) at 59 GHz. Using a 448- mu m-wide HEMT with a gate-length of 0.15 mu m, an output power of 155 mW with a 4.9-dB gain and a power-added efficiency of 30.1% were obtained. By power-combining two of these HEMTs, an output power of 288 mW with 3.6-dB gain and a power-added efficiency of 20.4% were achieved. This is the highest output power reported with such a high efficiency for InP-based HEMTs, and is comparable to the best results reported for AlGaAs/InGaAs on GaAs pseudomorphic HEMTs at this frequency. >
