            Abstract : 
A trench-type narrow InGaAs quantum-wire field-effect transistor (QWRFET) on a V-grooved (311)A InP substrate has been successfully fabricated. The trench-type InGaAs QWR-FET with 50 nm gate-length has demonstrated clear negative differential resistance (NDR) characteristics based on real space transfer (RST) with a high peak-to-valley current ratio (PVR=6.2) and a low onset voltage (VNDR) of 0.1 V. Such a low VNDR has not been reported before
