Abstract
The authors have fabricated AlGaN-GaN HEMTs with gate-lengths down to 70 nm to investigate DC and high frequency characteristics and the breakdown behaviour, respectively. Comparisons with HEMTS fabricated on the same wafer but with a longer gate-length (2 μm) are presented as well. The 70 nm devices have a transconductance of ~155 mS/mm, fT is 43 GHz and fmax~100 GHz. The breakdown voltage reaches 27 V at ID=550 mA/mm
