  • Abstract
    This paper provides an analysis of the power performance degradations of interdigitated HEMTs in millimeter wave range as the total gate width increases. It investigates the possibility of optimizing the device topology by combining a limited number of via holes and airbridge source connections in order to offer a good cost-performance trade off
