Abstract :
In this paper, a novel InGaAs metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (MOSFET) radio frequency (RF) switch device is demonstrated. The MOSFET RF switch device with 0.3 μm gate length and 10 nm Al2O3 as gate dielectric shows insertion loss of 0.3 dB and isolation of more than 50 dB. A maximum drain current of 250 mA/mm, a peak transconductance of 370 mS/mm, a turn-on resistance of 2.4 O·mm and a drain current on-off (Ion/Ioff) ratio of over 1×106 are obtained. The small signal models of this MOSFET switch device are also described. Excellent agreement between measured and simulated demonstrates the validity of this model.
