Different gate length (0.5 μm 16 μm) Al GaAs/GaAs and
AIGaAs /InGaAs High Electron Mobility Transistors were electrically
characterized in order to compare the room temperature DC device
performance with one-dimensional device models. Model parameters
such as the channel mobility and source/drain series resistances are
extracted from independent measurement of...
Present day data processing technology requires very high speed signal processing and data conversion rates. One such application which requires high speed is switched capacitor circuits used in Sigma-Delta modulators. A major active component of switched capacitor circuits is the monolithic operational amplifier(opamp). Because of the relatively poor speed performance...
This thesis reports on the growth and characterization of p-type
pseudomorphic A1GaAs /InGaAs /GaAs modulation doped field effect transistor
(MODFET) structures. A series of different p-type MODFET structures were grown
with a systematic variation of the indium mole fraction and quantum well width of
the InGaAs channel region. Extensive characterization...
This thesis reports on the crystal growth, fabrication,
modeling and performance of Graded Index-Separate Confinement
Heterostructure laser diodes which contain pseudomorphic InGaAs as the
active region material. Laser epitaxial layers were grown with
different indium mole-fractions, and a constant InGaAs layer thickness
of 10 nm, on both sides of the...
