InAlN/GaN HEMTs on Si With High fT of 250 GHz

In this letter, InAlN/GaN high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) with 40-200 nm rectangular gates and 300-700 nm source-to-drain distances were fabricated on Si substrates. The device with 40-nm gate and 300-nm source-to-drain distance exhibited a high drain current of 2.66 A/mm, a transconducta...
