An analytical parasitic resistance dependent Id–Vd model for planar doped InAlAs/InGaAs/InP HEMT using non-linear charge control analysis

An analytical parasitic resistance dependent model for the current voltage characteristics for InAlAs/InGaAs/InP HEMT is proposed. The model uses a new polynomial dependence of sheet carrier concentration on gate voltage to calculate I_d–V_d characteristics and has been extended to obtain transconductance, output conductance and cut-off frequency of the device. A maximum cut-off frequency of 83 and 175 GHz was obtained for channel length of 0.25 and 0.1 μm, respectively. Close agreement with published results confirms the validity of our approach.

利用改进的小信号模型对采用100nmInAlAs/InGaAs/InP工艺设计实现的PHEMTs器件进行建模, 并设计实现了一款W波段单片低噪声放大器进行信号模型的验证。为了进一步改善信号模型低频S参数拟合差的精度, 该小信号模型考虑了栅源和栅漏二极管微分电阻, 在等效电路拓扑中分别用Rfs和Rfd表示.为了验证模型的可行性, 基于该信号模型研制了W波段低噪声放大器单片.在片测试结果表明:最大小信号增益为14.4dB@92.5GHz, 3dB带宽为25GHz@85-110GHz.而且, 该放大器也表现出了良好的噪声特性, 在88GHz处噪声系数为4.1dB, 相关增益为13.8dB.与同频段其他芯片相比, 该放大器单片具有宽3dB带宽和高的单级增益.     

Optimization of charge and multiplication layers of 20-Gbps InGaAs/InAlAs avalanche photodiode

We calculated the correlation between the doping concentration of the charge layer and the multiplication layer for separate absorption, grading, charge, and multiplication InGaAs/InAlAs avalanche photodiodes (APDs). For this purpose, a predictable program was developed according to the concentration and thickness of the charge layer and the multiplication layer. We also optimized the design, fabrication, and characteristics of an APD for 20 Gbps application. The punch-through voltage and breakdown voltage of the fabricated device were 10 V and 33 V, respectively, and it was confirmed that these almost matched the designed values. The 3-dB bandwidth of the APD was 10.4 GHz, and the bit rate was approximately 20.8 Gbps.     

A new extrinsic dc model for high speed lattice matched InAlAs/InGaAs/InP HEMT with a predicted 135 GHz cut-off frequency

Extrinsic lattice matched InAlAs/InGaAs/InP HEMT model, incorporating the parasitic source and drain resistance, for very high frequency application is developed. The current voltage characteristics and the transconductance have been evaluated and the influence of carrier concentration dependent mobility on frequency has also been analyzed. A cut-off frequency of 135 GHz is obtained.
