A functional field effect transistor with self-organized In_(0.15)Ga_(0.85)As/GaAs quantum wires(QWRs)as a channel was achieved by molecular beam epitaxy on a(553)B GaAs substrate.Both the three-dimensional image of atom force microscopy and the polarization of the photoluminance peaks reveal that the channel of the device is a self-organized QWR structure.The device with a gate-length of 2μm and a source-drain spacing of 5μm performed a good enhancement-mode characteristic and a maximum transconductance of 65 mS/mm was obtained at the gate voltage of 1.0 V by the geometric gate-width at room temperature.The saturated drain current is as high as 5.6 mA.The device exhibited a much larger current capacity due to the high density of the self-organized QWRs in its channel layer.In addition,the effective gate width was discussed in comparison with the geometric gate width of the device,from which a larger maximum transconductance of 130 mS/mm could be estimated.
