  • Abstract
    A new type of heterostructure junction field-effect transistor is proposed which is suitable for realisation in a heterojunction material combination such as AlGaAs-GaAs. The conducting region is a layer which is pinched off by the modulation of a unique n-n heterojunction, formed by either MOCVD or molecular-beam-epitaxial growth techniques. Threshold control is by ion implantation as in MOSFET technology.
