GaAs Hall device 砷化镓霍尔器件

Gallium Arsenide Field Effect Transistor - (also called GaAs MESFET for metal Epitaxial Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor). A field effect transistor with a reverse-biased Schottky-barrier gate fabricated on a gallium arsenide substrate. Roughly equivalent to a silicon MOSFET, GaAs FETs are depletion mode devices. Because charge carriers reach approximately twice the velocity as in silicon, for a given geometry a given gain can be reached at about twice the frequency.
