Abstract
Planar-structured GaAs MMIC switches with Semi-Insulated-Gate FETS (SIGFETs) as the control elements demonstrated 4.8dB higher power handling capability (1dB signal compression) than compatible GaAS MMIC switches with conventional recessed-gate FETs. This improved power performance is chiefly due to the semi-insulated layer under the gate, which allows higher gate breakdown voltages. The semi-insulated layer was fabricated with low energy boron ion implantation in a completely planar,
