Abstract

The In0.52 Al0.48 As In0.53 Ga0.47 As metal-oxide-semiconductor metamorphic high-electron-mobility transistors (MOS-MHEMTs) with a thin InGaAs native oxide layer (∼10-15 nm) are demonstrated. The gate dielectric is directly obtained by oxidizing InGaAs material in a liquid phase solution. As compared to its counterpart MHEMTs, the MOS-MHEMTs have larger gate swing voltages, higher gate-to-drain breakdown voltages, and lower gate leakage currents with the suppressed impact ionization effect due to its higher barrier height.
