Abstract
Two independent failure mechanisms, mainly induced by temperature, were observed in unpassivated, Au-metallised, commercially available power MESFETs. They result in a high gate/source (drain) leakage and in an increase in the open channel resistance, and may explain the burn-out of the devices in practical applications.Pubblicazioni consigliate
