InGaAs/InAlAs high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) are the most promising electron devices not only for future ultra-high-speed wireless communications but also expansion of radio spectrum resources in millimeter- (30-300 GHz) and sub-millimeter-wave (300 GHz-3 THz) frequency bands; this is because these HEMTs can demonstrate a high current-gain cutoff frequency (fT) and a low minimum noise figure (NFmin). In this contribution, we measured output power performance of the 35-nm-gate In0.7Ga0.3As/In0.52Al0.48As HEMT with 520-GHz-fT and 0.8-dB-NFmin at 90-GHz band, and we also investigated the Lg dependence on output power characteritics of the HEMTs.We achieved a high maximum gain (Ga_max) of 9.9 dB and a saturation power (Psat) of 9.6 dBm (= 9.1 mW) at a frequency of 90 GHz. As Lg increased from 35 to 95 nm, Ga_max decreased to 7.8 dB and Psat increased to 10.8 dBm. Maximum power added efficiency (PAE) was 29.6% when the Lg was 50 nm. |
