Abstract :
A new approach to reducing the source resistance in InP-based InAlAs-InGaAs enhancement-mode HEMTs is developed using Pt-based buried-gate technology. Source resistance as small as 0.2 Ωmm is obtained, which results in an excellent transconductance of 1170 mS/mm for a 0.5 μm long gate enhancement-mode HEMT
