Abstract :
Depletion-mode InGaAs microwave power MISFETS with 0.7- mu m gate lengths and 0.2-mm gate widths have been fabricated using an epitaxial process. The devices employed a plasma-deposited silicon dioxide gate insulator. The RF power performance at 18 GHz is presented. An output power density of 0.92 W/mm with a corresponding power gain and power-added efficiency of 3.2 dB and 29%, respectively, was obtained. This is the highest output power density obtained for the InGaAs-based transistor on InP at K-band.<>
