W‐Band MMIC chipset in 0.1‐μm mHEMT technology

Abstract: We developed a 0.1‐μm metamorphic high electron mobility transistor and fabricated a W‐band monolithic microwave integrated circuit chipset with our in‐house technology to verify the performance and usability of the developed technology. The DC characteristics were a drain current density of 747 mA/mm and a maximum transconductance of 1.354 S/mm; the RF characteristics were a cutoff frequency of 210 GHz and a maximum oscillation frequency of 252 GHz. A frequency multiplier was developed to increase the frequen… Show more

“…All references dealt with mHEMTs for channel In x range from 0.6 to 0.8. Firstly, we obtained a higher cut-off frequency of 290 GHz at longer gate length of 124 nm compared to the results of our previous work (f t = 210 GHz at L g = 100 nm [1]). Considering that recess etching was carried out properly for both devices, one of the main reasons for the difference in performance is epitaxial structure changed its channel in content from 0.6 to 0.7 and N cap from N cap = 1×10 19 cm −3 to N cap = 2×10 19 cm −3 .…”

“…Introduction: Metamorphic high electron mobility transistor (mHEMT) with InGaAs channel material based on GaAs substrate can be applied to monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) with high frequency [1]. Compared to the competing InP-based InGaAs HEMT, the mHEMT exhibits relatively lower performance but is more cost-effective due to cheaper substrate price, the ability to fabricate on larger wafers, and ease of handling [2].…”

“…When a metamorphic buffer layer is applied to a GaAs substrate, an InP lattice-matched InAlAs/InGaAs epilayer can be grown to create a metamorphic HEMT (mHEMT) device. Results for monolithic microwave integrated circuits (MMICs) using mHEMT devices have been reported [2,3].…”
