The scaling to 0.5 µm of the inversion channel HFET with a single strained InGaAs quantum well is described. A unity current gain frequency of 40 GHz, gm = 205 mS/mm and VTH = –0.34 V have been obtained for 0.5 × 100 µm2 devices. For shorter gate lengths, threshold shifts are sizeable so that in order to scale further, modifications to the growth and processing are required.
