摘要
Excellent RF performance is reported for AlGaN HEMTs fabricated on electrically insulating SiC substrates. The transistors have an f(max) = 42GHz, and an f(1) = 15GHz. At 10GHz, 320 mu n wide transistors had a total power of 900mW with a gain of 6.5dB, which corresponds to a power density of 2.8W/mm.
