  • Abstract
    A methane hydrogen plasma has been used to define gate recesses through a polymer mask selectively on GaInAs/InAlAs based HEMT devices. No subsequent annealing was necessary and the devices exhibited comparable gm and idss values with much better uniformity than conventional wet etched devices
