High-frequency microwave noise characteristics of InAlN/GaN high-electron mobility transistors on Si (111) substrate
We report for the first time high-frequency microwave noise performance on 0.17-μm T-gate In0.17Al0.83N/GaN high-electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) fabricated on Si(111). The HEMTs exhibited a maximum drain current density of 1320 mA/mm, a maximum extrinsic transconductance of 363 mS/mm, an unity...
