Abstract
The authors report on RF results of p-type Ge channel modulation doped field effect transistors (MODFETs) with a gate length of 0.1 μm. The structure was grown on a relaxed 4.9 μm thick compositionally graded Si0.4Ge0.6 buffer. The devices exhibit DC transconductances up to 190 mS/mm and saturation currents up to 190 mA/mm. Cutoff frequencies of fT 59 GHz and fmax = 135 GHz have been obtained. The fmax value is, to the knowledge of the authors, the highest reported so far for p-type Si-based devices.
