Compositions of the InAiGaN layer are determined by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, structure and crystal quality of the heterostruetures are identified by high resolution x-ray diffraction, surface morphology of the samples are examined by an atomic force microscope, and Hall effect and capacitance-voltage measurements are performed at room temperature to evaluate the electrical properties of heterostructures. The Al/In ratio of the InAlGaN layer is 4.43, which indicates that the InAlCaN quaternary layer is nearly lattice-matched to the CaN channel. Capacitance-voltage results show that there is no parasitic channel formed between the InAIGaN layer and the AlCaN layer. Compared with the InAl- CaN/CaN heterostructure, the electrical properties of the InAlCaN/AlGaN/GaN heterostructure are improved obviously. Influences of the thickness of the AlGaN layer on the electrical properties of the heterostructures are studied. With the optimal thickness of the AlGaN layer to be 5 nm, the 2DEG mobility, sheet density and the sheet resistance of the sample is 1889.61 cm2/V.s, 1.44 × 10^13 cm-2 and as low as 201.1 Ω/sq, respectively.展开更多

The electron mobility is 1668.08cm2/V.s together with a high two-dimensional-electron-gas density of 1.43 × 10^13 cm-2 for the InAlCaN/CaN heterostructure of 2Onto InAlCaN quaternary barrier. High electron mobility transistors with gate dimensions of 1 × 50 μm2 and 4μm source-drain distance exhibit the maximum drain current of 763.91 mA/mm, the maximum extrinsic transconductance of 163.13 mS/mm, and current gain and maximum oscillation cutoff frequencies of 11 GHz and 21 GHz, respectively.展开更多

X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy results show that the A1/In ratio of the samples increases as the TEGa flows increase in the InAIGaN quaternary growth process. High-resolution x-ray diffraction results show that the crystal quality is improved with increasing TEGa flows. Morphology of the InA1GaN/GaN het- erostructures is characterized by an atomic force microscopy, and the growth mode of the InA1GaN quaternary shows a 21) island growth mode. The minimum surface roughness is 0.2Ohm with the TEGa flows equaling to 3.6 μool/rain in rms. Hall effect measurement results show that the highest electron mobilityμ is 1005.49 cm2/Vs and the maximal two-dimensional electron gas is 1.63 × 1013 em-2.展开更多
