We report an In0.75Ga0.25As metal-oxide-semiconductor high-electron-mobility transistor with a peak Hall mobility of 8300 cm2/Vs at a carrier density of 2 × 1012 cm−2. Comparison of split capacitance-voltage (CV) and Hall Effect measurements for the extracted electron mobility have shown that the split-CV can lead to an overestimation of the channel carrier concentration and a corresponding underestimation of electron mobility. An analysis of the electron density dependence versus gate voltage allows quantifying the inaccuracy of the split-CV technique. Finally, the analysis supported by multi-channel conduction simulations indicates presence of carriers spill over into the top InP barrier layer at high gate voltages.
