Abstract :
Advances in CMOS technology have made MOSFET a serious contender at RF. High frequency performance of the device is characterized by transit frequency ft, maximum frequency of oscillation fmax, minimum noise figure NFmin. This paper presents above figures of merits for optically controlled Silicon N-MOSFET, illuminated by optical source of photon energy greater than bandgap of Silicon. The figures of merit show improvement as compared to dark condition, indicating application of device as potential candidate in optoelectronic applications.
