Book Fabrication of AlGaN GaN InN High Electron Mobility Transistors

Download or read book Fabrication of AlGaN GaN InN High Electron Mobility Transistors written by and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The effect of various growth parameters such as temperature, V/III ratio and the growth rate on the properties of InN layers grown by MOCVD was investigated. The InN layers were deposited onto 2 micrometer thick GaN-on-c-plane sapphire films. In addition, the different precursor injection procedures were investigated. Since the growth of InN required very low deposition temperatures around 600 deg. C, for the deposition of InN/GaN heterostructures similar experiments were performed to optimize the growth of GaN at comparable growth temperatures. The fabrication of GaN/InN/GaN structures for device applications was complicated by intermixing and surface segregation of indium and defect formation in heterostructures related to the large lattice mismatch of 10% between GaN and InN.

Book AlGaN GaN Based Millimeter Wave High Electron Mobility Transistors

Download or read book AlGaN GaN Based Millimeter Wave High Electron Mobility Transistors written by Christian Haupt and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this work a scaling approach is studied to develop a transistor technology which achieves a high gain as well as a high output power at W-band frequencies and can be applied in the existing fabrication process for MMICs. Following the theoretical scaling rules for field effect transistors lateral and vertical critical dimensions of 100 nm and 10 nm must be achieved, respectively. Therefore various new fabrication processes were developed to enable the new critical dimensions with a sufficient production yield for MMIC fabrication. Transistors fabricated with these methods were evaluated regarding the influence of the scaled geometries on the device characteristics using S-parameter as well as DC-measurements. As a result a transistor technology could be established with a transconductance above 600 mS/mm which is one of the highest reported values for GaN-based HEMTs so far. Furthermore, these transistors feature a very low parasitic capacitance of 0.3 pF/mm and can as a consequence achieve a current-gain cut-off frequency of more than 110 GHz. Besides the high frequency characteristics short channel effects and their influence on the device characteristics were also evaluated. The scaled transistors are dominated by a drain induced barrier lowering (DIBL) and a critical aspect ratio of approximately 14 is necessary to suppress the DIBL-effect in GaN-HEMTs.

Book Fabrication  Characterization  and Modeling of AlGaN GaN High Electron Mobility Transistors

Download or read book Fabrication Characterization and Modeling of AlGaN GaN High Electron Mobility Transistors written by Ekaterina Harvard and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Initially, advances in the high frequency markets were begun by work in Gallium Arsenide systems. In recent years, however, the focus has shifted to the promise of ever higher power at ever higher frequency with the emergence of wide bandgap group III-V semiconductors, including Gallium Nitride. One area receiving attention is that of novel passivation materials for the active areas of AlGaN/GaN devices. Passivation is a critical issue because surface trapping effects are essentially unavoidable, even with the highest queality epitaxial layers, due to the polarized nature of the material. The question then becomes, which passivation materials offer the best mitigation of surface trapping effects with the least impact on parasitic elements detrimental to device performance. In this work, AlGaN/GaN devices passivated with AlSiN for both high frequency and high power operation are studied. The high frequency devices were fabricated alongside devices passivated with SiN, a standard passivation material, and characterized for both small signal and large signal performance. The AlSiN passivation was found to enhance both small and large signal performance, and so another set of devices was fabricated with high voltage, high power switching as the intended application. These devices were characterized for off-state breakdown, which was more than 4 times that of typical SiN-passivated devices, and time-domain and loadline measurements were performed.

Book Analysis and Optimization of AlGaN GaN High Electron Mobility Transistors for Microwave Applications

Download or read book Analysis and Optimization of AlGaN GaN High Electron Mobility Transistors for Microwave Applications written by Michael Hosch and published by Cuvillier Verlag. This book was released on 2011-08-08 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis deals with the analysis and optimization of some of the most prominent non-ideal effects in AlGaN/GaN high electron mobility transistors used in microwave applications as well as the optimization of the RF gain. The effect of current collapse, the root cause of leakage currents as well as field-dependent self-heating effects have been investigated by eletrical characterization using well established techniques and have been analyzed using 2-dimensional physical device simulations. It will be shown that the origin of all effects is strongly related to the device surface and some are even competing effects making device optimization a challenge. However, a detailed localization of the regions affecting device performance will be given leading to a better understanding for fabrication process optimization. Finally, I simulation study is conducted giving suggestions for RF gain improvement based on very simple device layout variations.

Book Dynamic Performance Simulation of AlGaN GaN High Electron Mobility Transistors

Download or read book Dynamic Performance Simulation of AlGaN GaN High Electron Mobility Transistors written by Shrijit Mukherjee and published by . This book was released on 2019-05-31 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: GaN based devices have reached a point in terms of processing maturity where the favorable wide-band gap related properties can be implemented in several commercial and military applications. However, long term reliability continues to affect large scale integration of such devices, specifically the potential of AlGaN/GaN High Electron Mobility Transistors (HEMTs), due to the indefinite nature of defects in the structure and mechanisms of performance degradation relevant to such defects. Recent efforts have begun to concentrate more on the bulk properties of the GaN buffer on which the heterostructure is grown, and how defects distributed in the buffer can affect the performance under various operating schemes. This dissertation discusses numerical simulator based investigation of the numerous possibilities by which such point defects can affect electrical behavior. For HEMTs designed for satellite communication systems, proton irradiation results indicate changes in the device parasitics resulting in degradation of RF parameters. Assumption of such radiation damage introducing fast traps indicate severe degradation far exceeding experimental observation. For power switching applications, the necessity of accurately capturing as-grown defects was realized when modeling current relaxation during bias switching. Ability to introduce multiple trap levels in the material bulk aided in achieving simulation results replicating experimental results more accurately than published previously. Impact of factors associated with such traps, either associated with discrete energy levels or band-like distribution in energy, on the nature of current relaxation characterized by its derivative has been presented.

Book Advanced Process Development for Contacts to Algan gan High Electron Mobility Transistors  HEMTS

Download or read book Advanced Process Development for Contacts to Algan gan High Electron Mobility Transistors HEMTS written by Benedict C. Ofuonye and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: High work function metals--Ni, Pt, Ir, and Au--were comparatively studied as Schottky metallizations to GaN and AlGaN/GaN heterostructures. Ni/Au, Ni/Pt/Au, Ir/Au, Ir/Pt/Au and Pt/Au Schottky diodes were fabricated on GaN and AlGaN/GaN substrates. Schottky barrier heights ranging from 0.8 to 0.9 eV were obtained as-deposited on GaN with ideality factors of about 1.05. The quality of the Schottky diodes was evaluated and their thermal stability also was studied. The interposition of Pt in Ni/Au and Ir/Au systems was found to improve the characteristics of the Schottky diodes. Ir/Pt/Au diodes were found to be more thermally stable than Ni/Pt/Au diodes. Ni/Au Schottky contacts exhibited good leakage response under thermal annealing for long periods. Microstructural studies were carried out on Ni/Pt/Au and Ni/Au Schottky contacts to elucidate the role of the intermediate layer, Pt, in the degradation of the Ni/Pt/Au metallization under long-term thermal anneal. A selective-area silicon ion implantation process for ohmic contact resistance improvement to AlGaN/GaN high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) was developed. Non-alloyed ohmic contacts with very low contact resistances of 0.2 - 0.24 -mm were achieved with TLM pads fabricated using the Mo/Al/Mo/Au metallization. Simulations were carried out with SRIM to qualify the implantation process. Surface chemistry analysis was undertaken on the implanted AlGaN/GaN and GaN samples to determine the impact of implantation on the surface morphology of the AlGaN layer. The developed ion-implantation process was used to propose fabrication schemes for novel high speed self-aligned and non-self-aligned AlGaN/GaN high electron mobility trasistors (HEMTs) employing Ir/Pt/Au or Ni/Au gate and non-alloyed ohmic contact metallizations.
