Abstract(in English) This paper describes the first successful 3watt-level 30GHz Ka-band power operation of an AlGaN/GaN heterojunction FET fabricated on a SiC substrate. The FET layout configuration was improved and the device dimensions were optimized to take advantage of the high breakdown voltage, high-current, and high-gain characteristics of the short-channel GaN-based FET for advanced power performance. State-of-the-art performance of more than 3W at Ka-band has been achieved employing a single chip having a qate width of 0.45mm. The fabricated FET with a gate-width of 100μm exhibited an MSG of 9.6dB at 30GHz (6.6dB at 60GHz) for a gate-length of 0.25μm, indicating that the short-channel AlGaN/GaN heterojunction FET is promising for a variety of high-power applications at Ka-band and above.
