Abstract
A study of the parasitic effects detrinental to the operation of two-dimensional electron gas field effect transistors (HEMTs) has been carried-out. These effects are strongly process-dependent. An experimental investigation and numerical simulations of the device permit the physical origin of these effects to be demonstrated : the residual doping level of the GaAs layer is a main parameter. We equally show that the epilayer growth parameters strongly influence on these effects.


Résumé
Nous avons mené une étude des effets parasites présentés par les transistors à effet de champ à gaz d'électrons bidimensionnel (HEMT). Ces effets sont étroitement liés à la technologie d'élaboration des composants. L'étude expérimentale, couplée à la simulation numérique du dispositif à permis de montrer l'origine physique de ces effets : le dopage résiduel de la couche de GaAs y joue un rôle prépondérant. L'étude montre également la sensibilité de ces effets aux paramètres technologiques de croissance des couches.

What is OpenURL?

The OpenURL standard is a protocol for transmission of metadata describing the resource that you wish to access. An OpenURL link contains article metadata and directs it to the OpenURL server of your choice. The OpenURL server can provide access to the resource and also offer complementary services (specific search engine, export of references...). The OpenURL link can be generated by different means.
  • If your librarian has set up your subscription with an OpenURL resolver, OpenURL links appear automatically on the abstract pages.
  • You can define your own OpenURL resolver with your EDPS Account. In this case your choice will be given priority over that of your library.
  • You can use an add-on for your browser (Firefox or I.E.) to display OpenURL links on a page (see http://www.openly.com/openurlref/). You should disable this module if you wish to use the OpenURL server that you or your library have defined.
