Abstract

GaAs MESFET's have been fabricated for the first time on monolithic GaAs/Si substrates. The substrates were prepared by growing single-crystal GaAs layers on Si wafers that had been coated with a Ge layer deposited by e-beam evaporation. The MESFET's exhibit good transistor characteristics, with maximum transconductance of 105 mS/mm for a gate length of 2.1 µm.
