Fabrication and characterization of delta-doped InGaAs pseudomorphic high electron mobility transistor
Abstract
InGaAs delta-doped pseudomorphic High-Electron Mobility Transistor was fabricated from MBE-grown InGaAs delta-doped pseudomorphic Modulation-doped Heterostructure. At T = 11 K, mobility of 16300 cm2/Vs was obtained by doing Hall measurement on the delta-doped sample, which was significantly large compared to 9700 cm2/Vs obtained on a uniformly-doped sample. This was attributed to reduced ionized impurity scattering in the delta-doped sample that enhances the speed of the carriers in the channel. By I-V measurement, the fabricated device was found to operate in depletion mode with a maximum drain current 12.8 µA at zero gate bias.
