Abstract :
Reports on the manufacturability of state-of-the-art passivated 0.1- mu m low-noise InP HEMTs (high electron mobility transistors). These HEMTs offer an attractive, cost-effective solution to millimeter-wave satellite communications. The authors discuss their yield and reproducibility, as well as typical performance at V- and W-bands.<>
