Abstract :
InP/InGaAs HIGFET´s with SiNx as gate insulator have been fabricated for the first time. An In2S3 interface control layer (ICL) is used to reduce trap states at the InP/SiNx interface. The ICL HIGFET´s show excellent drain I-V characteristics and allows large gate swings (±5 V) with negligible (<1 nA) gate leakage
