Abstract

Methods related to radio-frequency (RF) switching devices having improved voltage handling capability. In some embodiments, a method for fabricating an RF switching device can include: providing a semiconductor substrate; forming a plurality of field-effect transistors (FETs) on the semiconductor substrate such that the FETs have a non-uniform distribution of a parameter; and connecting the FETs to form a stack, such that the non-uniform distribution results in the stack having a first voltage handling capacity that is greater than a second voltage handling capacity corresponding to a similar stack having a substantially uniform distribution of the parameter.
