Abstract

Pseudomorphic In0.25Al0.75P/In0.75Ga0.25As high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) were fabricated to investigate the short-channel effect in the sub-0.1-µm gate-length region. Employing a thin Schottky barrier and a thin channel layer structure enabled us to suppress the short-channel effect in short-gate HEMTs, and a high-performance 47-nm-gate HEMT with a 423-GHz current gain cutoff frequency was achieved. The present results show the possibility of the practical use of pseudomorphic HEMTs with a scaled-down structure for various applications, such as ultra-high-speed digital circuits and millimeter-wave communications/observations.
