摘要
Fabrication of enhancement-mode high electron mobility transistors on AlGaN/GaN heterostructures grown on sapphire substrates is reported. These devices with 1.2μm gate-length,4mm space between source and drain,and 15nm recessed-gate depth exhibit a maximum drain current of 332mA/mm at 3V, a maximum transconductance of 221mS/mm, a threshold voltage of 0.57V, ft of 5.2GHz, and fmax of 9.3GHz. A dielectric layer formed unintentionally during recessedgate etching is confirmed by contrasting the Schottky I-V characteristics of pre-etching and post-etching. The frequency characteristics and subthreshold characteristics of the devices are studied in detail.
