Abstract :
A fast two dimensional computer simulation to model the transient and steady state performance of GaAs FETs has been written. Results from the simulation are used to describe some important features of operation including typical electric field and mobile charge distributions and the variation of the noise influence functions. An expression for the expected noise figure is obtained in terms of these noise influence functions and is compared with experimentally observed trends.
