Our experiments find that, with decreasing Lch,eff, the saturation drain current (Iasat ) degradation is unexpectedly alleviated. The further study demonstrates that the anomalous Lch,eff dependence of Idsat degradation is induced by the increasing influence of the substrate current degradation on the lazar degradation with Lch,eff reducing.展开更多

The simulation results show that a downscaling of gate-to-source distance can improve device performance, i.e. enhancing drain current, transconductance, and maximum oscillation frequency. This is associated with the peculiar dynamic of electrons in SiC MESFETs, which lead to a linear velocity regime in the source access region. The variations of gate-to-source capacitance, gate-to-drain capacitance, and cut-off frequency with respect to the change in gate-to-source length have also been studied in detail.展开更多
