摘要
Characteristics of pseudomorphic inverted HEMT (P-I-HEMT) are compared with that of pseudomorphic HEMT. Both devices were fabricated in enhancement-mode by the same process. P-I-HEMT shows higher maximum transconductance of 590 mS/mm, and higher K-value of 600 mS/Vmm at threshold voltage of 0 V, and good pinch-off characteristics than its counterpart. Noise characteristics of P-I-HEMT are reported for the first time in this paper. Lower noise figure (1.0 dB at 18 GHz) was obtained in P-I-HEMT. It is concluded that the P-I-HEMT structure is suitable for fine gate low noise FET's. Furthermore, P-I-HEMT shows far better noise characteristics than the other at low drain voltage and current.
