Abstract
Summary form only given. Gate current studies have been performed to optimize the performance of HFET (heterostructure field-effect transistor) circuits. Pseudomorphic AlxGa1-xAs/In yGa1-yAs n- and p-channel HFETs with x and y values up to 0.75 and 0.25, respectively, were studied. An analytical theory of the gate current in n- and p-channel HFETs, taking into account both thermionic emission and tunneling is presented
