Abstract :
Device performance of uniformly-doped and delta-doped AlGaAs/InGaAs pseudomorphic high electron mobility transistors are investigated with 2D numerical simulator, ATLAS/Silvaco. Simulation results demonstrates superior performance for the delta-doped structure. The advantages shown by delta-doped structure include better electron confinement and reduced parasitic conduction which are manifested as higher transconductance and improved drain current.
