Abstract
Al0.5In0.5P/In0.15Ga0.85As doped-channel HFETs (DCFETs) are expected to have a high linearity and a high breakdown voltage for microwave power device applications due to the improvement of a larger ΔEc (0.45 eV) and a wide bandgap AlInP Schottky layer. The device, biased at Vds = 3.0 V and operated at 2.4 GHz, provided an output power density of 209 mW/mm, a power-added efficiency of 59% and a linear power gain of 17 dB. Two-tone measurement reveals that third-order intermodulation at an input power of 0 dBm is -29 dBc and the output intercept point (OIP3) is 30.4 dBm for devices with a 1 mm wide gate.
