Physical evidence of electromigration in GaAs PHEMT Schottky diodes operating at high forward current density
Elevated two-temperature lifetests at Tambient of 265°C and 280°C were performed on GaAs PHEIMT Schottky diodes with various gate lengths of 0. 1, 0. 15, and 0.2 gm. During lifetesting, the diodes were stressed at 500 mA/mm. Metal voids were observed on devices operating at forward current density . 1.2x106 Amps/cm2 (MIL-M-38510: 6x105 Amps/cm2), in addition to Ti diffusion into the AlGaAs Schottky barrier layer with Ti/Pt/Au metal stacks. The formation of metal voids is attributed to Au electromigration. Based on these results, reliability guidelines of GaAs PHEMT Schottky diodes with different gate lengths were established. The safe-operation-areas (SOA) are 0.5, 0.8, and 2 mA/finger for GaAs PHEMT Schottky diodes with gate lengths of 0.1, 0.15, and 0.2 gim, respectively.
