Abstract :
Electric-field distributions and carrier-density distributions in a GaAs m.e.s.f.e.t. at large drain voltages are investigated with a new analytical model, which takes account of the electron-drift-velocity saturation with negative differential mobility and the extension of a depletion layer towards the drain electrode.
