  • Patent number: 11177379
    Abstract: A gate-sinking pseudomorphic high electron mobility transistor comprises a compound semiconductor substrate overlaid with an epitaxial structure which includes sequentially a buffer layer, a channel layer, a Schottky layer, and a first cap layer. The Schottky layer comprises from bottom to top at least two stacked regions of semiconductor material. Each of the two adjacent stacked regions differs in material from the other and provides a stacked region contact interface therebetween. In any two adjacent stacked regions of the Schottky layer, one stacked region composed of AlGaAs-based semiconductor material alternates with the other stacked region composed of InGaP-based semiconductor material. A gate-sinking region is beneath the first gate metal layer of the gate electrode, and the bottom boundary of the gate-sinking region is located at the one of the at least one stacked region contact interface of the Schottky layer.

  • Publication number: 20210215925
    Abstract: An imaging system and method for leakage detection uses schlieren imaging to locate and characterize a flow of pressurized gas with a refractive index different than ambient air. In particular, a schlieren imaging system includes a collimated light, a knife-edge spatial filter and a 4F telescopic imaging system is used to create an image of a device under test (DUT). The DUT is pressurized and monitored for leaks. When a leak is present and in the monitored plane of the DUT, contrast variation illustrates the presence, location and character of the leak. For example, a waterproof/leakproof mobile device may be evaluated for leakage between layers of modules, such as leaks in the housing of a waterproof electronics case. This detection can allow identification and characterization of the leak point via visual identification.
