Abstract
Microwave measurements and practical data have been studied from over 30 device fabrication lines worldwide, leading to the conclusion that there are at least thirteen practically observed phenomena occurring in FETs and HEMTs (high electron mobility transistors) that are not well understood physically, but for which good mathematical-physical descriptions must be developed for yield-driven CAD. Each of the thirteen phenomena are briefly described.<>
