Abstract
We have studied a quarter-micrometre-gate HEMT by a two-dimensional Monte Carlo particle simulation to gain a deeper insight into the device operation. A new transversedomain formation due to intervalley electron transfer is predicted. The effect of domain formation on device performance and current saturation characteristics is also discussed.
