    Abstract

    A physically based technique for modelling HEMT structure S-parameters is presented. The core of the model is directly dependent on the HEMT wafer structure and the physical gate length. The model accurately predicts the device's S-parameters as a function of the applied gate bias. The physical basis facilitates the modelling of different types of HEMT structures. In this paper we present measured S-parameters and simulation results, over a frequency range of 1 to 25 GHz, for three different HEMT structures: uniformly-doped, GaAs-channel; pulse-doped, GaAs-channel; and uniformly-doped, strained-InGaAs-channel.
