摘要
The high potential at microwave frequencies of AlGaN/GaN high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) on high resistive silicon (111) substrate for power applications has been demonstrated in this letter. For the first time, an output power density close to 1.8 W/mm and an associated power added efficiency of 32% have been measured on a 2 x 50 x 0.5 mum(2) HEMT with a linear power gain of 16 dB. These results constitute the state of the art.
