Growth and characterization of metamorphic layer structures for high electron mobility transistors

InP-based high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) have demonstrated superior high frequency and low noise performance. However, high cost, limited size and brittle nature of InP substrate bring difficulties to low-cost and high-volume production. In order to overcome these drawbacks, it is desira...
