Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) We present K-band AlGaN/GaN HFET MMIC amplifiers with integrated microstrip lines on sapphire substrates. The microstrip lines with via-holes through chemically stable sapphire are successfully formed by using a novel laser drilling technique. Integrated AlGaN/GaN MIS-HFETs have in-situ SiN as a gate insulator, which is formed subsequently after the epitaxial growth without any exposure in the air. A typical MIS-HFET shows fmax of 203 GHz. The compact 3-stage amplifier exhibits a small-signal gain as high as 22 dB at 26 GHz with a 3 dB bandwidth of 4 GHz. The presented K-band MMIC would be applicable to future millimeter-wave communication systems.
