Abstract :
Significant improvements in gate voltage swings in heterostructures prepared by low-pressure metalorganic chemical vapor deposition are discussed. Structures utilizing a compositionally graded InxGa1-xAs channel exhibited a very flat transconductance region of 2 V. The gate voltage swings of single and double δ-doped GaAs/In0.25Ga0.75As/GaAs structures were 2.5 and 2.8 V, respectively. All structures also exhibited high extrinsic transconductance as well as high saturation current densities
