成功研制了栅长为0.15μm、栅宽为2×50μm、源漏间距为2txm的InP基In0.52Al0.48As/In0.53Ga0.47As高电子迁移率器件.室温下,当器件%s为1.7V、VGS为0.1V时,其有效跨导达到了1052mS/mm.传输线方法(TLM)测试显示器件的接触电阻为0.032Ω·mm,器件欧姆接触电阻率为1.03×10-7Ω·cm-2.正是良好的欧姆接触及其短的源漏间距减小了源电阻,进而使得有效跨导比较大.器件有比较好的射频特性.从100MHz到40GHz,S参数外推出来的fT和fmax分别为151GHz和303GHz.所报道的HEMT器件非常适合毫米波段集成电路的研制.
0.15 μm gate-length InP-based In0.52Al0.48As/In0.53Ga0.47As high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) were successfully fabricated with gate-width of 2 x 50 p,m and source-drain space of 2 μm. The maximum extrinsic transcon- ductance (ginext) of 1 052 mS/mm was obtained under gate-source voltage (Vos) of 0. 1 V and drain-source voltage (VDS) of 1.7 V at room temperature. Transmission Line Method (TLM) measurements revealed the contact resistance of 0. 032 Ω·mm and the specific contact resistivity of 1.03 ×10-7Ω·cm-2 on linear TLM patterns. Thus, markedly en- hanced gmext was achieved by the superb Ohmic contact and the short source-drain space for minimizing series source re- sistance. These devices also demonstrated excellent RF characteristics. The fT and fmax extrapolated using the S-parame- ters measured from 100 MHz to 40 GHz were 151 GHz and 303 GHz, respectively. The HEMTs were promising for mil- limeter-wave band integrated circuits.
