Abstract :
A measurement technique for performing detailed characterisation of modern field effect transistors (FETs) is reported. The technique, based on impulse excitation over arbitrary voltage and time contours, allows determination of parameters and time constants associated with second-order effects observed in short-channel FETs and IIV-V semiconductors. Large-signal bias-independent models that incorporate these additional parameters provide predictions that are consistent with large-signal measurements and conventional s-parameter results
