  • Abstract
    Heterostructure Field-Effect Transistors (HFETs) on In0.7Al0.3As/ In0.8Ga0.2As heterostructures grown on GaAs substrates have been fabricated and characterized. The lattice mismatch is accommodated by a linearly graded InxAlyGa1-x-yAs buffer. The Hall mobility is 9700 and 39400 cm2/Vs at room temperature and 77 K, respectively. An intrinsic transit frequency, fT, of 250 GHz indicates high electron velocity in the In0.8Ga0.2As channel. This is, to our knowledge, the highest fT obtained for an InxGa1-xAs HFET with x≫0.5 on GaAs substrates.
