Impact ionization measurements and modeling for power PHEMT.

A systematic study of impact ionization in pseudomorphic high electron mobility transistors (PHEMTs) has been carried out using temperature-dependent electrical measurements as well as modeling for optimizing the power performance of the devices through the best layout parameters. A measurement proc...
