Abstract
Single (SHBV) and dual (DHBV) heterostructure barrier varactors with AlAs/In0.52Al0.48As blocking conduction layers have been fabricated and characterised. The devices, whose electrical properties scale with layer complexity exhibit, for a DHBV scheme, leakage currents as low as 10A/cm2 at 12 V, a zero bias capacitance of 1 fF/μm2, and a capacitance ratio of 5:1
