Abstract

Downscaling CMOS technology has allowed the integration of high-speed transceivers on silicon chips, but high-power amplifiers rely on III-V technologies to deliver the power and efficiency levels required by modern radios. In this work, we explore two routes to enable the fabrication of compound semiconductor devices on a large-scale manufacturable Si platform. In the first route, we report on Al(Ga,In)N HEMTs, MISHEMTs and MOSFETs integrated on 200 mm Si wafers using Au-free processing in standard Si CMOS tools. In the second route, we demonstrate GaAs/InGaP HBTs grown on a 300 mm Si substrate using Nano-Ridge Engineering (NRE) combined with aspect ratio trapping (ART). We provide insight on the potential of these new technologies for the design of advanced front-end modules, including performance trade-offs, modelling and reliability challenges.
