What does width of depletion region signifies?

This equation shows that the width of the depletion region is proportional to the square root of the gate voltage and the doping density of the semiconductor material. In general, the depletion region width decreases as the gate voltage increases and the doping density decreases.
The width of the depletion region in a MESFET is an important parameter that affects the device performance, such as the cutoff frequency and the noise figure. It is typically specified by the manufacturer and can be optimized through the device design to achieve desired device characteristics.
