Title
Temperature-dependent noise characterization and modeling of on-wafer microwave transistors
Abstract
Thermal investigation is of basic importance to assess key aspects of the performance and the reliability of microwave devices and circuits operating in a critical environment. To this aim, we have designed and realized an efficient thermoelectric chuck for on-wafer probe stations featuring rapid and accurate temperature control over the 220–320 K range. The system has been exploited in the measurement of I–V characteristics, scattering parameters and noise figure of GaAs-based heterojunction devices up to 40 GHz.
