GaAs power MESFETs with 1 .mu.m gate length and an undoped GaAs surface layer on the doped GaAs channel are fabricated using IR(image reversal) and air-birdge processes. And then We have measured and calculated DC and RF characteristics. We have obtained saturation current 107-500 mA (197-255 mA/mm), maximum linear RF output power 111-518.8 mW (204-270 mW/mm), current gain cut-off frequency 7-10 GHz, maximum unilateral transducer power gain 5.7-12.7, and power added efficiencies 37.9-41.2 % from the devices with gate width 0.45-2.2 mm, at 6 GHz.
