Abstract :
High frequency characterization of microwave semiconductor devices is presented based on physical modeling. The active device is simulated using a fast and accurate model based on the hydrodynamic equations which simulate the behavior of short gate field-effect transistors (FETs). The device response is analyzed as a function of the input signal frequency and its amplitude.<>
