  • Abstract
    The first power results of GaN MESFET achieved at 2 GHz are presented. A power density of 2.2 W/mm has been obtained with an associated power added efficiency of 27% at Vds=30 V and V gs=-2 V. These results represent a significant improvement over similar MESFET´s or HFET´s grown on GaAs or InP substrates
