Abstract
A non-recessed-gate enhancement-mode HEMT was fabricated on an undoped quaternary AlInGaN/GaN heterostructure with a thin barrier AlInGaN layer. The maximum drain current of 252 mA/mm and peak transconductance of 175 mS/mm were obtained on a 2 μm-length-gate HEMT with a large threshold voltage of 0.57 V. The enhancement-mode operation was observed in a large source-drain voltage range up to 40 V. The results imply that AlInGaN is a promising candidate for high power and high frequency applications.
