Abstract :
A new 550 V AlGaAs/GaAs Hetero source Bipolar mode Static Induction Transistor (HBSIT) has recently been developed and fabricated. The GaAs HBSIT is considered to be superior to conventional Silicon power devices in on-state characteristics. For an example, forward voltage drop of 0.3 V can be obtained at current gain of 150 and drain current density of 100 A/cm2
