Picosecond large-signal switching characteristics of a pseudomorphic AlGaAs/InGaAs modulated doped field effect transistor

چکیده
We present the first comprehensive study of the large-signal switching characteristics of an AlGaAs/InGaAs modulation-doped field-effect transistor on a picosecond time scale. Electra-optic sampling is used to measure drain voltage response to a steplike gate input with a 2.8 ps rise time, at various dc biases. A large-signal switching time of 6.2 ps is obtained. Features deleterious to high-frequency device operation are observed, related to equivalent circuit parameters, and reduced by appropriate choice of operating point.

In this paper we propose a microwave detector based on a AlGaAs/ InGaAs/GaAs structure. Its operation relies on non-uniform carrier heating of the two-dimensional electron gas in the microwave electric fields which is a result of the asymmetric shape of the device fabricated on the base of pseudomorphic modulation doped AlGaAs/InGaAs/GaAs structure. The voltage sensitivity of the device at nitr...

InAlAs/InGaAs Modulation-Doped Field-Effect Transistors (MODFETs) on InP have recently emerged as an optimum choice for a variety of microwave and photonics applications. This is because the outstanding transport properties of InGaAs have yielded devices with very low-noise and high-frequency characteristics. Unfortunately, the low breakdown voltage of InAlAs/InGaAs MODFETs on InP (typically le...
