Abstract

Artificial Intelligence Computer Networks and Communications Computer Science Applications Hardware and Architecture Information Systems Electrical and Electronic Engineering
In this paper, the DC and RF device performance of AlGaN/GaN high-electron-mobility transistors (HEMTs) with different AlGaN back barrier thickness has been studied. The test results of the HEMTs with 50 nm back barrier exhibit Idssat=640 mA mm gm=405 mS mm, and on/off ratio = 1.5 E+04. In small-signal operation, cut-off frequency FT FMAX=59/127 GHz are achieved, which gives a high value of ( FT × Lg)=14.7 GHz ×μ m among the reported GaN-on-Si devices.
