The low-frequency noise characteristics of AlGaN & x002F;GaN HEMTs and MIS-HEMTs are investigated in the dark condition and under UV illumination. The test devices with a 3-& x03BC;m-thick GaN buffer and a 25-nm-thick Al_0.22Ga_0.78N barrier layer were fabricated on the silicon wafer. For MIS-HEMTs, a 25-nm-thick SiN layer was deposited as a gate dielectric. The measured low-frequency noises show a 1 & x002F;f spectrum and can be described by the carrier number fluctuation model. Different noise responses to the UV light between HEMTs and MIS-HEMTs were observed. By comparing the noise data in dark and under UV illumination, the noise sources under the gate and in the ungated gate-drain access region have been identified. From these results, we can find a design guideline to improve the noise and reliability of GaN-based devices for optoelectronic applications.

In this work, a recess-free thin AlGaN barrier metal-insulator-semiconductor high electron mobility transistor (MIS-HEMT) with high threshold voltage of 3.19V, high maximum drain current of 716 mA/mm and high breakdown voltage of 906V is demonstrated for the first time. Three different thin barrier structures were compared for device performance. In addition, long-term reliability measurements were carried out to investigate the interface quality of the devices with and without gate recess. The recessfree device exhibits a smaller Vth hysteresis and a more stable performance than those of gate recessed devices. Overall, the recess-free thin barrier AlGaN/GaN MIS-HEMT demonstrates promising performance for power switching applications.

This paper examines the effect of the field plate structure on the RF performance of AlGaN/GaN High Electron Mobility Transistor (HEMT) devices. While the field plate structure helps to increase the breakdown voltage of the device through modulating the electric field locally, it induces additional feedback capacitance from drain to gate. Such feedback capacitors may impact the overall RF performance of the device especially at high frequencies. Systematic investigations on the small signal as well as power performance as functions of the drain biases are presented. (C) 2011 Published by Elsevier B.V.

The effect of the AlN spacer on the performance of AlGaN/GaN HEMT devices at 38 GHz is experimentally investigated. The measurement results revealed that the device with spacer showed superior performance in terms of the maximum drain current. RF wise, substantial improvement in the cut-off frequency and the maximum oscillation frequency was also observed for devices with spacer. A saturated output power density of 4.21 W/mm with 35.02% power-added efficiency (PAE) at 38 GHz were achieved for device with 70nm gate length.

Al0.12Ga0.88As/In0.18Ga0.82As high-electron-mobility transistor (HEMT) growth oil a Si substrate using the Ge/GexSi1-x buffer is demonstrated. This is the first demonstration of Al0.12Ga0.88As/In0.18Ga0.82As HEMT growth on a Ge/GexSi1-x metamorphic buffer layer. The electron mobility ill tile In0.18Ga0.82As channel of the HEMT sample was 3.550cm(2)/(Vs). After fabrication. the HEMT device demonstrated a saturation current of 150mA/mm with a transconductance 01 155mS/ inns. The wel behaved characteristics of the HEMT device oil the Si substrate are believed to be due to the very thin buffer layer achieved and the lack of tile antiphase boundary (APB) formation and Ge diffusion into the GaAs layers.

In this paper, we report the first result of a strained In(0.52)Ga(0.48) As channel high-electron mobility transistor (HEMT) featuring highly doped In(0.4)Ga(0.6) As source/drain (S/D) regions. A lattice mismatch of 0.9% between In(0.52)Ga(0.48) As and In(0.4)Ga(0.6) As S/D has resulted in a lateral strain in the In(0.52)Ga(0.48) As channel region, where the series resistance is reduced with highly doped S/D regions. An experimentally validated device simulation is advanced for the proposed HEMT, and the results of this paper have shown that there are 60% drive-current and 100% transconductance improvements, compared with the conventional structure. A remarkable 150-GHz increase in the cutoff frequency has been seen for the proposed structure over the conventional one as well for the shown devices.

Deeply recessed ohmic contacts for GaN-based high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) are demonstrated. It is shown that low-resistance ohmic contacts can be achieved with recessing beyond the AlGaN Schottky barrier where the ohmic contacts are formed on the sidewall of the recess. This makes the process versatile and relatively insensitive to the exact recess depth. The ohmic contact is based on a gold-free metallization scheme consisting of a Ta/Al/Ta metal stack requiring a low-temperature annealing. Important parameters for this type of ohmic contact process include the metal coverage, slope of the etched sidewall, bottom Ta-layer thickness, as well as annealing temperature and duration. The optimized contact resistance is as low as 0.24 Omega mm after annealing at 575 degrees C. Moreover, this sidewall contact approach was successfully implemented on different epitaxial heterostructures with different AlGaN barrier thickness as well as with and without AlN exclusion layer. All the samples exhibited excellent contact resistances in a wide range of recess depths. The Ta-based, sidewall ohmic contact process is a promising method for forming an ohmic contact on a wide range of GaN HEMT epitaxial designs.

High-performance GaN metal-oxidesemi-conductor high-electron-mobility transistors (MOSHEMTs) using Al2O3 gate dielectric deposited by atomic layer deposition (ALD) and damage-free neutral beam etch (NBE) gate recess process for millimeter-wave power applications are demonstrated. The high-quality ALD Al2O3 reduces the gate leakage current of the device and the NBE method eliminates the plasma-induced defects in the nitride materials. The MOSHEMT device fabricated exhibits a high maximum drain current density (I-DS,I-max ) of 1.65 A/mm and a high peak extrinsic transconductance (g(m.ext) ) of 653 mS/mm. The MOSHEMT device also demonstrates excellent RF performances, including f(T)/f(MAX) = 183/191 GHz, NFmin = 2.56 dB with G(AS) = 5.61 dB at 54 GHz, and an output power density of 2.7 W/mm associated with a power-added efficiency of 20.9% and a linear power gain of 9.4 dB at 38 GHz. To the best of our knowledge, the noise performance at 54 GHz is the best reported so far for the AlGaN/GaN HEMTs.

The electrical performances of gate-recessed AlGaN/GaN high-electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) fabricated using the damage-free neutral beam etching (NBE) method are demonstrated. The NBE method could eliminate the plasma-induced defects generated by irradiating ultraviolet/VUV photons in the conventional inductively coupled plasma reactive ion etching method. The AlGaN/GaN HEMT device fabricated using the new gate recess process exhibited superior electrical performances, including a maximum drain current density (I-DS,I-max) of 1.54 A/mm, low 1/f noise, a current-gain cutoff frequency (f(T)) of 153 GHz, a maximum frequency of oscillation (f(MAX)) of 167 GHz, and a minimum noise figure (NFmin) of 3.28 dB with an associated gain (G(AS)) of 5.06 dB at 54 GHz. Such superior characteristics confirm the inherent advantages of adopting the damage-free NBE process in fabricating GaN devices for millimeter-wave applications.
