  • METHOD OF FORMING A GATE CONTACT
    Publication number: 20140264448
    Abstract: A method is provided for forming a gate contact for a compound semiconductor device. The gate contact is formed from a gate contact portion and a top or wing contact portion. The method allows for the tunablity of the size of the wing contact portion, while retaining the size of the gate contact portion based on a desired operational frequency. This is accomplished by providing for one or more additional conductive material processes on the wing contact portion to increase the cross-sectional area of the wing contact portion reducing the gate resistance, while maintaing the length of the gate contact portion to maintain the operating frequency of the device.
