“…QCD cannot be solved analytically, at least not yet, and the large value of $$\alpha _s$$ α s at low momentum transfers limits perturbative calculations to the high-energy region where $$Q^2\gg \varLambda _{{\textrm{QCD}}} ^2\simeq $$ Q 2 ≫ Λ QCD 2 ≃ (250 MeV) $$^2$$ 2 . …”

Fabrication and characterization of Algan/Gan high electron mobility transistors on silicon by Tham, Wai Hoe

“…Therefore, we believe that the Au-free low temperature metal scheme has great prospects and potential in the fabrication of AlGaN/GaN HEMTs on Si platform. Last but not least, the performance of AlGaN/GaN HEMT is usually restricted by the severe gate leakage and high access resistance between the source and gate. …”
