description This study investigates the design of MOD-FETs (modulation-doped field effect transistors) using β-Ga 2 O 3 as the substrate material. The main focus is on understanding the impact of self-heating on the alteration of mobility of electrons profile. This paper introduces a model that takes into account the influence on temperature and doping on the electron mobility in β-Ga 2 O 3 . Furthermore, it offers estimations for the conductivity of heat of β-Ga 2 O 3 , considering the influence of temperature and crystalline orientation. Furthermore, we showcase a practical example of modulation-doped β-(Al x Ga 1-x ) 2 O 3 /Ga 2 O 3 using a tri-metal FET where the energy level difference between the conduction bands and the presence of undesired channels in the barrier layer determines the maximum sheet carrier density in this structure. These channels enable the transfer of electrons from both the bottom and upper portions of the β-Ga 2 O 3 quantum well. Using modulation doping, the proposed structure exhibited an ultimate current drain of 250 mA/m, a peak conductivity of 40 ms/m, and a potential of 10.0 V at ambient temperature. The electrical characteristics of the TMG device were evaluated by comparing it to the double-metal gate (DMG) device using the Atlas Silvaco TCAD simulation for analysis of performance. The results indicate that, the suggested device exhibits greater efficiency in terms of conductivity, current gain cut-off frequency, and energy gain cut-off frequency as compared to DMG transistors. The measured electric field in this example is a consequence of using a Tri-Metal Gate architecture (TMG) to regulate the channel. The designed setup achieves peak frequency of 45.5/50.5 gigahertz with a gate length of 0.2 mm. This discovery highlights the potential of using the β-(Al x Ga 1−x ) 2 O 3 /Ga 2 O 3 with tri-metal FET architecture as a promising method for high-power radio frequency operations.
