Abstract
In this letter, β-(AlxGa1-x)2O3 MOSFET with high breakdown voltage are demonstrated. A 150-nm β-(Al0.14Ga0.86)2O3 epitaxial layer and a 30-nm Ga2O3 buffer were grown on Fe-doped semi-insulating β-Ga2O3 substrate by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition. The epitaxial thin film exhibits relatively high crystalline quality, with a FWHM of 54 arcsec in the XRD rocking curve and a surface roughness of 2.3 nm. A T-shaped gate and source-field-plated are fabricated to mitigate electric field crowding. The β-(Al0.14Ga0.86)2O3 MOSFET with source-drain length of 84 μm demonstrates breakdown voltage of 7.2 kV, combined with the specific on-resistance of 3534 mΩ cm2, corresponding to power figures of merit of 14.7 MW/cm2. The results highlight the potential of β-(AlxGa1-x)2O3 for high-voltage power electronics.
