Abstract

we have studied the characteristics of PHEMT's with gate recess etching method. The DC characterization of PHTMT fabricated with the wide single recess methods is a maximum drain current density of 319.4 ㎃/mm and a peak transconductance of 336.7 ㎳/mm. The RF measurements were obtained in the frequency range of 1~50GHz. At 50GHz, 3.69dB of 521 gain were obtained and a current gain cut-off frequency(f$_{T}$) of 113 CH and a maximum frequency of oscillation(f$_{max}$) of 172 Ghz were achieved from this device. On the other hand, a maximum drain current of 367 mA/mm, a peak transconduclancc of 504.6 mS/mm, S$_{21}$ gain of 2.94 dB, a current gain cut-off frequency(f$_{T}$) of 101 CH and a maximum frequency of oscillation(f$_{max}$) of 113 fa were achieved from the PHEMT's fabricated by the .narrow single recess methods.methods.
