The identification of failure modes and mechanisms which may affect the reliability of GaN-based High Electron Mobility Transistors is extremely important for the application of this technology to microwave and millimeter-wave systems, and for the development of high-efficiency GaN power electronics. GaN HEMT reliability has been the subject of a large number of studies which identifie specific failure modes, not previously observed in Si and GaAs devices.

Abstract

The identification of failure modes and mechanisms which may affect the reliability of GaN-based High Electron Mobility Transistors is extremely important for the application of this technology to microwave and millimeter-wave systems, and for the development of high-efficiency GaN power electronics. GaN HEMT reliability has been the subject of a large number of studies which identifie specific failure modes, not previously observed in Si and GaAs devices.
