Project Overview
GaN-based high electron mobility transistors have been proven to be the technology for all RF high power applications. It has already marked its presence up to Ka-band applications. Aggressive efforts are now directed towards the realization of W band applications, which require transistors beyond 100 GHz unit operating frequency. This frequency domain is now ruled mostly by InP devices, which suffer many problems, including low output power. This proposal proposes to bridge this profound gap and bring out a solution through the engineering of the heterostructure, device fabrication, and processing technologies.
