  • Abstract
    A new high-power, high-frequency junction field-effect transistor with a nonplanar V-shaped channel fabricated by preferential etching of ¿100¿ silicon is described. The structure of this transistor is very simple, requires only three photolithographic masking steps and results in a very high packing density. A device having an effective channel length of 2 ¿m was fabricated. This transistor exhibits a low-frequency transconductance of 9.6 mS/mm, a cutoff frequency of 0.9 GHz and an output power density of 25 W/mm2 of chip area.
