Book excerpt: PHEMT devices and their incorporation into advanced monolithic integrated circuits is the enabling technology for modern microwave/millimeter wave system applications. Although still in its infancy, PHEMT MIMIC technology is already finding applications in both military and commercial systems, including radar, communication and automotive technologies. The successful team in a globally competitive market is one in which the solid-state scientist, circuit designer, system engineer and technical manager are cognizant of those considerations and requirements that influence each other's function. This book provides the reader with a comprehensive review of PHEMT technology, including materials, fabrication and processing, device physics, CAD tools and modelling, monolithic integrated circuit technology and applications. Readers with a broad range of specialities in one or more of the areas of materials, processing, device physics, circuit design, system design and marketing will be introduced quickly to important basic concepts and techniques. The specialist who has specific PHEMT experience will benefit from the broad range of topics covered and the open discussion of practical issues. Finally, the publication offers an additional benefit, in that it presents a broad scope to both the researcher and manager, both of whom must be aware and educated to remain relevant in an ever-expanding technology base.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1959, Atalla and Kahng at Bell Labs produced the first successful field-effect transistor (FET), which had been long anticipated by other researchers by overcoming the "surface states" that blocked electric fields from penetrating into the semiconductor material. Very quickly, they became the fundamental basis of digital electronic circuits. Up to this point, there are more than 20 different types of field-effect transistors that are incorporated in various applications found in everyday's life. Based on this fact, this book was designed to overview some of the concepts regarding FETs that are currently used as well as some concepts that are still being developed.

Download or read book GaN HEMT Modeling Including Trapping Effects Based on Chalmers Model and Pulsed S Parameter Measurements written by Peng Luo and published by Cuvillier Verlag. This book was released on 2019-01-09 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: GaN HEMTs are regarded as one of the most promising RF power transistor technologies thanks to their high-voltage high-speed characteristics. However, they are still known to be prone to trapping effects, which hamper achievable output power and linearity. Hence, accurately and efficiently modeling the trapping effects is crucial in nonlinear large-signal modeling for GaN HEMTs. This work proposes a trap model based on Chalmers model, an industry standard large-signal model. Instead of a complex nonlinear trap description, only four constant parameters of the proposed trap model need to be determined to accurately describe the significant impacts of the trapping effects, e.g., drain-source current slump, typical kink observed in pulsed I/V characteristics, and degradation of the output power. Moreover, the extraction procedure of the trap model parameters is based on pulsed S-parameter measurements, which allow to freeze traps and isolate the trapping effects from self-heating. The model validity is tested through small- and large-signal model verification procedures. Particularly, it is shown that the use of this trap model enables to dramatically improve the large-signal simulation results.

Download or read book Intermodulation Distortion in GaN HEMT written by Ibrahim Khalil and published by Cuvillier Verlag. This book was released on 2010-01-03 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work treats intermodulation distortion performance of GaN-HEMT high-power transistors. A detailed study on the physical parameters influencing third-order intermodulation distortions is carried out, based on the large-signal model and on physical device simulation. Devices are characterized in terms of linearity by setting up a sophisticated measurement system. Among others, an electronic fuse is used at the drain side to avoid catastrophic failure during measurement. The bias-dependent transconductance characteristic is identified as the dominating source for intermodulation distortion in GaN HEMTs, while drain-source capacitance and access resistances have only minor influence. The corresponding physical parameters governing the transconductance behavior are determined and optimized structures for high linearity are proposed. Besides characterization and analysis of conventional designs, a novel device architecture for very high linearity is presented. Finally, performance of GaN HEMTs within a hybrid amplifier configuration is shown and the combination of high power, high linearity, and low-noise characteristics is highlighted.
