Modulation‐doped InAlAs/InGaAs heterostructures were grown on InP substrates by solid source molecular beam epitaxy. Lattice matching within ±10−3 was reproducibly obtained. The high quality of the ternary compounds is demonstrated by narrow photoluminescence linewidths of full width at half‐maximum=2 and 13 meV for InGaAs and InAlAs, respectively. The transport properties are excellent, too, with a 4.2 K mobility of 84 000 cm2/Vs for two‐dimensional electron gas concentrations of 1.3×1012 cm−2 in conventional single heterostructures. Optimized single quantum‐well structures with high current carrying capacity due to modulation doping in both barriers have sheet carrier concentrations of 4.0×1012 cm−2 and 4.2 K mobilities of 28 000 cm2/Vs. Sub‐μm‐high electron mobility transistors processed from these structures show a maximum transconductance of 500 mS/mm at a drain current of 445 mA/mm. A very high maximum drain current of 1120 mA/mm is obtained, while maintaining cutoff frequencies of fT=118 GHz and fm...
