In this paper, focused ion-beam implantation was used to tailor the dopant concentration in the channel region of GaAs MESFETs, allowing the fabrication of devices with higher power ratings than uniformly doped devices of similar dimensions.
Abstract
The dopant concentration in the channel region of GaAs MESFETs is tailored by focused ion-beam implantation, allowing the fabrication of devices with higher power ratings than uniformly doped devices of similar dimensions With this technique, multiple masking steps during fabrication and avoided, and dopant concentration can be changed with great precision in both position and magnitude The effect of dopant grading on other device parameters, such as the transconductance and the pinch-off voltage, is reported >

Dual material gate field effect transistor (DMGFET)

TL;DR: The dual material gate field effect transistor (DMGFET) as discussed by the authors is a new type of device, which consists of two laterally contacting materials with different work functions, and it takes advantage of material work function difference in such a way that the threshold voltage near the source is more positive than that near the drain, resulting a more rapid acceleration of charge carriers in the channel and a screening effect to suppress short channel effects.

Mobility overestimation due to minority carrier injection and trapping in organic field-effect transistors

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate the mechanism of nonideal electrical characteristics by device simulation based on a split-channel model, where the gate voltage swing on the drain side is higher than that on the source side.

Power-limiting breakdown effects in GaAs MESFET's

TL;DR: In this paper, a model of the depletion layer configuration of planar and recessed-gate FETs was proposed to solve the problem of reverse breakdown at the drain-side edge of the gate, where the breakdown voltage was inversely proportional to the product of the doping level and active layer thickness.
