  • Patent number: 10270436
    Abstract: Techniques are provided that pumping of deep traps in GaN electronic devices using photons from an on-chip photon source. In various embodiments, a method for optical pumping of deep traps in GaN HEMTs is provided using an on-chip integrated photon source that is configured to generate photons during operation of the HEMT. In an aspect, the on-chip photon source is a SoH-LED. In various additional embodiments, an integration scheme is provided that integrates the photon source into the drain electrode of a HEMT, thereby converting the conventional HEMT with an ohmic drain to a transistor with hybrid photonic-ohmic drain (POD), a POD transistor or PODFET for short.

  • Patent number: 10236846
    Abstract: A power amplifier using an equivalent transformer is provided. The power amplifier includes amplifiers and T lines having first terminals connected to the amplifiers and second terminals connected to output sides. Accordingly, powers are combined using the equivalent transformer in the power amplifier, such that an insertion loss can be reduced and thus degradation of output power efficiency can be prevented.
