An In-S monolayer ICL, formed by a novel photoelectrochemical process, is used to reduce and control trap states at the SiN/sub x//InP interface. Buried channel insulated gate ICL HIGFETs fabricated using this approach operate over a large gate voltage range (V/sub gs/=/spl plusmn/8 V) with very low gate leakage (10 nA@V/sub gs/=/spl plusmn/5 V) and I/sub ds/(sat) of 250 mA/mm. Undoped channel ICL HIGFETs exhibit transconductance (g/sub m/) of 40 mS/mm that is limited by conduction through the buffer layer. A 3 to 4 fold improvement in g/sub m/ (140-150 mS/mm) is achieved by using a doped InGaAs channel and eliminating parallel conduction paths through the device. The doped channel HIGFETs show f/sub t/ of 5-6 GHz (Lg=3 /spl mu/m) and f/sub max/ of 10-12 GHz with a power gain of 14.2 dB at 3 GHz. The ICL HIGFET technology has been used to construct simple circuits such as buffer amplifiers with a gain of 7-10 dB at 3 GHz and recently, high frequency sample and hold ICL HIGFET circuits that operate at frequencies of 2 GHz.","PeriodicalId":268278,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 8th International Conference on Indium Phosphide and Related Materials","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130340703","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Moreover, a fine adjustment of the gate recess depth has proven to be very difficult, impacting the control of the transistor pinch-off voltage and its homogeneity over the wafer.
