Abstract
Section titled āAbstractāThis paper demonstrates the performance comparison of Sapphire (Al <sub xmlns:mml=āhttp://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathMLā xmlns:xlink=āhttp://www.w3.org/1999/xlinkā>2</sub> O <sub xmlns:mml=āhttp://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathMLā xmlns:xlink=āhttp://www.w3.org/1999/xlinkā>3</sub> ) and Diamond substrate based High Electron Mobility Transistor (HEMT). The parameters used in the performance comparison includes: transfer characteristics, output characteristics and transconductance. High drain current of Sapphire makes availability for Radio Frequency (RF) application up to millimetre waves (30GHz-300GHz) and also high thermal conductivity of Diamond (2000W/ m.K) make withstand with high temperature. Transconductance of Diamond is (-350μS) and of sapphire is (-375μS) as compare to Gallium arsenide (-300μS). A study of various parameters like breakdown voltage and sub threshold slope also has been done. All these simulation work is performed using Silvaco ATLAS 2D simulator.
