Abstract

Multiple ion-implanted GaN/AlGaN/GaN high electron-mobility transistors (HEMTs) and preciously controlled ion-implanted resistors integrated on silicon substrate are reported. Using ion implantation into source/drain (S/D) regions, the performances were significantly improved. On-resistance reduced from 10.3 to 3.5 Ω•mm. Saturation drain current and maximum transconductance increased from 390 to 650 mA/mm and from 130 to 230 mS/mm. Measured transfer curve shows that I/O gain of 4.5 can be obtained at Vdd = 10 V.
