Deep-level and profile effects upon low-noise ion-implanted GaAs MESFET's

The noise and RF performance of recessed-gate GaAs ion-implanted MESFET's as a function of various doping profiles has been theoretically investigated. The effects of implant energy and dose as well as varying deep-level concentration are included, Degradation of device performance with increasing deep-level concentration is predicted and the responsible physical mechanisms revealed. Also, an opti...
