Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) We fabricated sub-100-nm-gate AlGaN/GaN metal-insulator-semiconductor (MIS) high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) that had SiN/SiO2/SiN triple-layer insulators and measured their DC and RF characteristics at 300 and 16 K. As expected, the drain-source current and the maximum DC transconductance increased at 16 K. We observed an increase of 14 to 28% in the value of cutoff frequency fT at 16 K over that at 300 K. At 16 K, we obtained a maximum fT of 176 GHz at a gate length Lg of 45 nm and a source-drain spacing Lsd of 2 um. We estimated the average electron velocity under the gate by a transit time analysis. The average velocities were 2.2e7 cm/s at 300 K and 2.7e7 cm/s at 16 K. The increase in the value of fT results from an increase in electron velocity and reductions in access resistances and channel charging time. Furthermore, we obtained an fT of 156 GHz at 300 K and 194 GHz at 16 K for the 45-nm-gate MIS-HEMT by reducing the source-drain spacing Lsd from 2 um to 1.5 um.
