| Abstract: |
A pulsed measurement of AlGaN/GaN high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) current-voltage (I–V) output characteristics from 100 to 300 K temperatures has been systematically investigated, and a significant kink is clearly observed, which is more severe at cryogenic temperatures. By comparing the pulsed and dc I–V curves, the kink effect is more significant in the pulsed mode evaluation, which indicates a time constant related mechanism involved in the carrier transport. Moreover, a weak impact ionization by monitoring the gate current in the on-state of device has also been observed, and it is more significant at cryogenic temperatures. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
