Enhancement-mode AlGaN/GaN high electron-mobility transistors have been fabricated with a gate length of 160 nm. The use of gate recess combined with a fluorine-based surface treatment under the gate produced devices with a threshold voltage of +0.1 V. The combination of very high transconductance (> 400 mS/mm) and low gate leakage allows unprecedented output current levels in excess of 1.2 A/mm. The small signal performance of these enhancement-mode devices shows a record current cutoff frequency (f/sub T/) of 85 GHz and a power gain cutoff frequency (f/sub max/) of 150 GHz. 相似文献

Temperature-dependent nonlinearities of GaN/AlGaN HEMTs are reported. The large-signal device model of the transistor is obtained by using a physics-based analysis. The model parameters are obtained as functions of bias voltages and temperature. The analysis of the device has been carried out using a time-domain technique. fmax for a 0.23 μm×100 μm Al0.13Ga0.87N/GaN FET is calculated as 69 GHz at 300 K, while at 500 K, fmax decreases to 30 GHz, which are in agreement with the experimental data within 7% error. fmax as obtained from calculated unilateral gain, decreases monotonically with increasing temperature. For shorter gate lengths irrespective of the operating temperature fmax is less sensitive to bias voltage scaling. For longer gate length devices, fmax becomes less sensitive to the bias voltage scaling at elevated temperatures. 1-dB compression point (P1-dB ) at 4 GHz for a 1 μm×500 μm Al0.15Ga0.85N/GaN FET is 13 dBm at 300 K. At 500 K, P1-dB decreases to 2.5 dBm for the same operating frequency. Similar results for output referred third intercept point (OIP3) are reported for different gate length devices 相似文献

In this paper, a high-power GaN/AlGaN/GaN high electron mobility transistor (HEMT) has been demonstrated. A thick cap layer has been used to screen surface states and reduce dispersion. A deep gate recess was used to achieve the desired transconductance. A thin SiO/sub 2/ layer was deposited on the drain side of the gate recess in order to reduce gate leakage current and improve breakdown voltage. No surface passivation layer was used. A breakdown voltage of 90 V was achieved. A record output power density of 12 W/mm with an associated power-added efficiency (PAE) of 40.5% was measured at 10 GHz. These results demonstrate the potential of the technique as a controllable and repeatable solution to decrease dispersion and produce power from GaN-based HEMTs without surface passivation. 相似文献

AlGaN/GaN high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) on 6H-SiC with varying field-plate length and gate-drain spacing were fabricated and analyzed. The classical small signal FET model and the well-known ColdFET method were used to extract the small signal parameters of the devices. Though the devices with field plates exhibited lower better fT characteristic, they did demonstrate better fmax, MSG and power density performances than the conventional devices without field plate. Besides, no independence of DC characteristic on field-plate length was observed. With the increase of the field-plate length and the gate-drain spacing, the characteristic of fT and fmax degraded due to the large parasitic effects. Loadpull method was used to measure the microwave power performance of the devices. Under the condition of continuous wave at 5.4 GHz, an output power density of 4.69 W/mm was obtained for device with field-plate length of 0.5 μm and gate-drain length of 2 μm. 相似文献

随着高压开关和高速射频电路的发展,增强型GaN基高电子迁移率晶体管(HEMT)成为该领域内的研究热点。增强型GaN基HEMT只有在加正栅压才有工作电流,可以大大拓展该器件在低功耗数字电路中的应用。近年来,国内外对增强型GaN基HEMT阈值电压的研究主要集中以下两个方面:在材料生长方面,通过生长薄势垒、降低Al组分、生长无极化电荷的AlGaN/GaN异质材料、生长InGaN或p-GaN盖帽层,来控制二维电子气浓度;在器件工艺方面,采用高功函数金属、MIS结构、刻蚀凹栅、F基等离子体处理,来控制表面电势,影响二维电子气浓度。从影响器件阈值电压的相关因素出发,探讨了实现和优化增强型GaN基HEMT的各种工艺方法和发展方向。 相似文献

A new small-signal model for anisomerous AIGaN/GaN high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) is pro-posed for accurate prediction of HEMT behavior up to 20 GHz. The parasitic elements are extracted from both cold-FET and pinch-off bias to obtain more precise results and the intrinsic part is directly extracted. All the parameters needed in this process are determined by the device structure rather than optimization methods. This guarantees consistency between the parameter values and the component's physical meaning. 相似文献

We report on the fabrication and high-frequency characterization of AlGaN/GaN high-electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) and metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). In devices with a gate length of 160 nm, a record power density of 10.5 W/mm with 34% power added efficiency (PAE) has been measured at 40 GHz in MOCVD-grown HEMTs biased at V/sub DS/=30 V. Under similar bias conditions, more than 8.6 W/mm, with 32% PAE, were obtained on the MBE-grown sample. The dependence of output power, gain, and PAE on gate and drain voltages, and frequency have also been analyzed. 相似文献

High-performance enhancement-mode AlGaN/GaN HEMTs (E-HEMTs) were demonstrated with samples grown on a low-cost silicon substrate for the first time. The fabrication process is based on a fluoride-based plasma treatment of the gate region and postgate annealing at 450 /spl deg/C. The fabricated E-HEMTs have nearly the same peak transconductance (G/sub m/) and cutoff frequencies as the conventional depletion-mode HEMTs fabricated on the same wafer, suggesting little mobility degradation caused by the plasma treatment. 相似文献

Deep levels in AlGaN/GaN high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) on SiC substrate are known to be responsible for trapping processes like: threshold voltage shift, leakage current, degradation current, kink effect and hysteresis effect. The related deep levels are directly characterized by conductance deep level transient spectroscopy (CDLTS) method. Hereby, we have detected five carrier traps with activation energy ranging from 0.84 to 0.07 eV. In this study, we have revealed the presence of two hole-like traps (HL1 and HL2) observed for the first time by CDLTS with activations energy of 0.40 and 0.84 eV. The localisation and the identification of these traps are presented. Finally, the correlation between the anomalies observed on output and defects is discussed. 相似文献

We present the first active visible blind ultraviolet (UV) photodetector based on zinc oxide (ZnO) nanostructured AlGaN/GaN high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs). The ZnO nanorods (NRs) are selectively grown on the gate area by using hydrothermal method. It is shown that ZnO nanorod (NR)-gated UV detectors exhibit much superior performance in terms of response speed and recovery time to those of seed-layer-gated detectors. It is also found that the best response speed (~10 and~190 ms) and responsivity (~1.1×105 A/W) were observed from detectors of the shortest gate length of 2 µm among our NR-gated devices of three different gate dimensions, and this responsivity is about one order higher than the best performance of ZnO NR-based UV detectors reported to date. 相似文献

Current Collapse and High-Electric-Field Reliability of Unpassivated GaN/AlGaN/GaN HEMTs 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

Long-term ON-state and OFF-state high-electric-field stress results are presented for unpassivated GaN/AlGaN/GaN high-electron-mobility transistors on SiC substrates. Because of the thin GaN cap layer, devices show minimal current-collapse effects prior to high-electric-field stress, despite the fact that they are not passivated. This comes at the price of a relatively high gate-leakage current. Under the assumption that donor-like electron traps are present within the GaN cap, two-dimensional numerical device simulations provide an explanation for the influence of the GaN cap layer on current collapse and for the correlation between the latter and the gate-leakage current. Both ON-state and OFF-state stresses produce simultaneous current-collapse increase and gate-leakage-current decrease, which can be interpreted to be the result of gate-drain surface degradation and reduced gate electron injection. This study shows that although the thin GaN cap layer is effective in suppressing surface-related dispersion effects in virgin devices, it does not, per se, protect the device from high-electric-field degradation, and it should, to this aim, be adopted in conjunction with other technological solutions like surface passivation, prepassivation surface treatments, and/or field-plate gate 相似文献

Intrinsic noise sources and their correlation in gallium-nitride high electron-mobility transistors (HEMTs) are extracted and studied. Microwave noise measurements have been performed over the frequency range of 0.8-5.8 GHz. Using measured noise and scattering parameter data, the gate and drain noise sources and their correlation are determined using an equivalent-circuit representation. This model correctly predicts the frequency-dependent noise for two devices having different gate length. Three noise mechanisms are identified in these devices, namely, those due to velocity fluctuation, gate leakage, and traps. 相似文献
