Short Gate-Length HFETs

EBL has been used to pattern short gates on AlGaN-GaN based HFET devices with the aim of facilitating high power and high temperature operation. Gates with lengths ranging from 50nm to 350nm have been successfully patterned. The SEM images below shows a typical device with a 75nm gate.
