Abstract

State-of-the art SiC MESFET's showing a record high f/sub max/ of 26 GHz and RF gain of 8.5 dB at 10 GHz are described in this paper. These results were obtained by using high-resistivity SiC substrates for the first time to minimize substrate parasitics. The fabrication and characterization of these devices are discussed.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
