Backgatting effect in GaAs FETs with a channel–semi-insulating substrate boundaryAhmed Chaouki Megherbi a,*, Said Benramache b, Abderrazak Guettaf a

This study focuses on modeling the effects of deep hole traps, mainly the effect of the substrate（backgating effect） in a GaAs transistor MESFT. This effect is explained by the existence, at the interface, of a space charge zone. Any modulation in this area leads to response levels trapping the holes therein to the operating temperature. We subsequently developed a model treating the channel substrate interface as an N–P junction, allowing us to deduce the time dependence of the component parameters of the total resistance R ds, the pinch-off voltage V P, channel resistance, fully open R co and the parasitic series resistance R S to bind the effect trap holes H1and H0. When compared with the experimental results, the values of the R DS（t S/ model for both traps show that there is an agreement between theory and experiment; it has inferred parameter traps, namely the density and the time constant of the trap. This means that a space charge region exists at the channel–substrate interface and that the properties can be approximated to an N–P junction.
