Popis: In order to enhance the electron mobility we use step graded channel structure in the heterostructure field effect transistor to reduce Coulomb scattering. The electrons are far away from the AlGaAs/InGaAs interface. We fabricated successfully and obtained high drain current density and large gate voltage swing. For a 1.2/spl times/100 /spl mu/m/sup 2/ gate dimension, the maximum saturation drain current density is 373 mA/mm and the maximum extrinsic transconductance is 148 mS/mm along with the gate voltage swing of 1.9V. Additionally, we use four period AlGaAs/GaAs buffer layer so that the variations of threshold voltages are insensitive to temperature.
