We measured the DC and RF characteristics of InP-based 75-nm-gate In0.52Al0.48As/In0.63Ga0.37As HEMTs at 300, 220, 150, 100, 77 and 16 K and clarified the effect of temperature on improvement of DC and RF performance. The obvious kink phenomenon is seen in the drain-source current vs. drain-source voltage (Ids-Vds) characteristics with decreasing
temperature. The maximum transconductance gm increases with decreasing temperature between 300 and 77 K and shows the almost same value at 100 and 77 K. At 16 K, the decrease in gm is seen. The decrease in gm at 16 K may result from the kink phenomenon. Cutoff frequency fT and maximum oscillation frequency fmax increase with decreasing temperature. The increase of fmax with decreasing temperature is more than that of fT. The fmax largely increases between 150 and 100 K. Furthermore, the increase of fT and fmax values is very small between 77 and 16 K. This suggests that operating InP HEMTs at 77 K is sufficient to increase fT and fmax values. |
