Abstract

Two independent failure mechanisms, mainly induced by temperature, were observed in unpassivated, Au-metallized, 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.
