In this talk, we present our recent studies to develop advanced printed electronics technologies for the production of all-printed and high-resolution thin-film transistors (TFTs) by utilizing self-organized characteristics of both silver nanoparticles and organic semiconductors. Specifically, we show that 1) novel printing principle via the nanoparticle chemisorption effect enables the formation of conductive silver patterning with submicron resolution, and 2) intrinsic high layered crystallinity of some organic semiconductors is quite effective to produce high performance printed organic TFTs.

Chang, Yen-Ku Lin","doi":"10.23919/IWJT.2019.8802617","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.23919/IWJT.2019.8802617","url":null,"abstract":"GaN-based high electron mobility transistor (HEMT) is a promising candidate for high-frequency and high-power applications due to its outstanding material properties, such as high electric breakdown field and high peak electron drift velocity. A low contact resistance (Rc) contact is essential for the device performance including output power, power efficiency, frequency response and noise performances. To obtain low contact resistances, several studies using different metallization schemes have been demonstrated. A standard Ti/Al/Ni/Au metal stack is a conventional ohmic contact of GaN HEMTs. Ti reacts with AlGaN to form TiN, which results in the creation of nitrogen vacancies which act as donors in AlGaN layers. The resultant N-type doped AlGaN and the conductive TiN facilitate tunneling mechanism of carriers at the interface.We have demonstrated high-frequency performances for AlGaN/GaN HEMTs processed with ohmic recess technique. The contact resistances were as low as 0.25 •·mm after annealing. We also optimized the gate structure with larger gate head to enhance the OFF-state breakdown voltage for optimizing the power performance at Ka band. The device exhibited superior electrical performances, including a maximum drain current density (IDS,max) of 1.59 A/mm, a peak extrinsic transconductance (gm.ext) of 480 mS/mm, a high current-gain cutoff frequency (fT)/ maximum frequency of oscillation (fMAX) of 71/123 GHz, and a minimum noise figure of 1.91 dB with an associated gain of 6.13 dB at 40 GHz. The device demonstrated a maximum output power density of 4.6 W/mm, with a power-added efficiency of 19.5 %, and a linear gain of 8.2 dB with a larger gate head biased at Vds = 20 V at 38 GHz.High-performance GaN metal-oxide-semiconductor high electron mobility transistors (MOSHEMTs) using ohmic contact with N-type dopants and Al2O3 gate dielectric deposited by atomic layer deposition (ALD) for millimeter-wave power applications is demonstrated. An alloyed Si/Ge/Ti/Al/Ni/Au contacts was used to reduce the ohmic contact resistance over conventional Ti/Al/Ni/Au ohmic contacts. The improvement of the contact resistance is because of the enhanced N-type doped AlGaN by Si and Ge was added to further enhance the doping concentration of the ohmic contact regions. The MOSHEMT device fabricated exhibits IDS,max of 1.65 A/mm and high gm.ext of 653 mS/mm. The MOSHEMT device also demonstrates excellent RF performances including fT/fMAX = 183/191 GHz measured at Vds=5 V. The fMAX of the device was larger than 200GHz when Vds was biased at 20V.The Ti-based ohmic contacts commonly have a rough surface morphology and reduced edge acuity that affect accurate alignment of the gate electrode for downscaled GaN-based HEMTs. Therefore, a gold-free and Titanium-free Ta-based metal stack was utilized for ohmic contact. Low-resistance ohmic contacts formed by sidewall contacts with ohmic recess for GaN HEMTs were demonstrated.
