Study of trapping mechanisms affecting AlGaN/GaN HEMTs adopting AlGaN back-barriers with different aluminum concentrations
The influence of different Aluminum concentrations in the AlGaN back-barrier on short-channel and dispersion effects of 0.45 μm-gate AlGaN/GaN HEMTs has been studied. Four samples have been tested, one as reference without back-barrier but with a Fe-doped GaN buffer, and three with an AlGaN back-barrier with respectively a 0.5 %, 1 % and 1.5 % Aluminum. Back-barrier devices have lower current collapse with respect to the reference, the latter being affected by trapping at Fe-induced defects and at deep levels induced by residual C. Devices with 1.5 % Al show subthreshold characteristics comparable with those of reference, but 50 % lower current collapse. 1 % Al back-barrier devices show very low drain-source leakage in pinch-off conditions and as a consequence the lowest dispersion effects.
期刊介绍:
Microelectronics Reliability, is dedicated to disseminating the latest research results and related information on the reliability of microelectronic devices, circuits and systems, from materials, process and manufacturing, to design, testing and operation. The coverage of the journal includes the following topics: measurement, understanding and analysis; evaluation and prediction; modelling and simulation; methodologies and mitigation. Papers which combine reliability with other important areas of microelectronics engineering, such as design, fabrication, integration, testing, and field operation will also be welcome, and practical papers reporting case studies in the field and specific application domains are particularly encouraged.
Most accepted papers will be published as Research Papers, describing significant advances and completed work. Papers reviewing important developing topics of general interest may be accepted for publication as Review Papers. Urgent communications of a more preliminary nature and short reports on completed practical work of current interest may be considered for publication as Research Notes. All contributions are subject to peer review by leading experts in the field.
