摘要
综合镓极性(Ga-polar)和氮极性(N-polar)GaN基高电子迁移率晶体管(HEMT)上的欧姆接触特性,提出了一种混合极性的GaN基HEMT结构。通过自洽求解薛定谔方程和泊松方程,分析了该混合极性GaN基HEMT结构中的二维电子气(2DEG)行为特性,从而为该混合极性HEMT结构的实际应用提供了理论参考。仿真结果表明N-polar AlGaN背势垒的Al组分较其厚度对2DEG的影响更为明显,而将N-polar AlGaN背势垒的Al组分渐变后,可以降低寄生沟道对主沟道2DEG的影响,AlN插入层的引入也可进一步提高2DEG面密度、迁移率及其限阈性。
A novel type of the GaN-based high electron mobility transistor (HEMT) structure, consisting of the hybrid Ga-polar and N-polar GaN layers, was proposed for the purposes of simplifying the fabrication of HEMT and optimizing the property of Ohmic contacts. The two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) behavior, in the proposed HEMT structure with hybrid polar Ohmic contacts ,was empirically approximated, mathematically modeled, theoretically analyzed by self-consistently solving the Schrodinger and Poisson equations, and numerically simulated. The simulated results show that when it comes to the impact on the 2DEG density, the Al-content outweighs the depth of the AlGaN back potential-barrier. We found that a graded Al depth profile in N-polar AlGaN back potential barrier markedly weakens the influence of the parasitic channel on the 2DEG in the main channel, and that the inserted AlN nano-layer significantly improves the density,mobility and confinement of 2DEG.
