  • Method of making a sapphire gate transistor
    Patent number: 4097314
    Abstract: A method of making an improved aluminum oxide (sapphire) gate field effect transistor wherein the capacitance-voltage characteristic of the transistor is improved by annealing the aluminum oxide at a temperature less than the growth temperature of the aluminum oxide. A transistor annealed at a temperature less than the growth temperature is provided wherein the threshold voltage is the same as if the transistor were annealed at a temperature greater than the growth temperature; the capacitance-voltage characteristic of the transistor exhibiting markedly diminished hysteresis by annealing at a temperature less than the growth temperature.
