A novel thin GaAs lattice-mismatched gate Ga0.47In0.53As field-effect transistor (LMG-FET) is reported. The device shows an extrinsic dc transconductance of 108 mS/mm for a 1.4-µm gate length and 240-µm gate width. Despite a 3.7-percent, lattice mismatch between GaAs and Ga0.47In0.53As, the LMG-FET shows stable operation even at 80°C (with a 13-percent increase in transconductances), exhibits negligible current drift, and suffers very little change in threshold voltages (<0.05 V) under illumination, This technology may find applications in high-speed lightwave transmission as well as high-speed digital circuits.
