  • Abstract
    The authors report on the characteristics of 0.25 μm gate-length GaN/AlGaN modulation doped field effect transistors grown by MOCVD on sapphire. A record combination of high breakdown voltage (>100 V) and high frequency performance (fT=27 GHz, fmax=80 GHz) was achieved, which demonstrates the excellent potential of these devices for microwave power applications
