摘要
We report the first known p-channel GaAsxSb1-x/InyAl1-yAs HFET's on InP. The devices, using a strained-layer GaAsxSb1-x channel, have achieved extrinsic transconductances of 40 mS/mm and intrinsic transconductances of 100 mS/mm. In addition to high transconductance, the devices exhibit excellent pinchoff and demonstrate a record gate turn-on voltage of -3 V as a result of extremely low gate leakage currents, making them exceptional candidates for complementary technologies. These outstanding gate characteristics are attributed to the valence band-edge discontinuity of 0.64 eV.
