摘要
开发并优化了低温下超低噪声放大器(LNAs)的InP MMIC工艺。该过程中的放大器工作频率高达100ghz。加工的晶圆为4英寸,可携带超过4000个3级单元。对于大量6-20 GHz的3级lna,我们在环境温度为10 K时测量到的平均噪声温度为5.8 K,这是该频率范围内最先进的水平,在300K时测量到的平均噪声温度为66.3 K。相关增益分别为35.9 dB (10K)和33.2 dB (300k), 47个LNAs的室温标准差分别为1.5 K和0.3 dB。
An InP MMIC Process Optimized for Low Noise at Cryo
An InP MMIC process was developed and optimized for ultra-low noise amplifiers (LNAs) operating at cryogenic temperature. The amplifiers from the process are working up to 100 GHz. The processed wafers are 4" and can carry more than 4000 3-stage units. For a significant number of 6-20 GHz 3-stage LNAs we have measured an average noise temperature of 5.8 K at ambient temperature of 10 K, state of the art in this frequency range, and 66.3 K at 300K. Associated gain was 35.9 dB (10K) and 33.2 dB (300 K). The standard deviation at room temperature for 47 LNAs was 1.5 K for the noise and 0.3 dB for the gain.
