基于GaN同质衬底的高迁移率AlGaN/GaNHEMT材料

研究了表面预处理对GaN同质外延的影响,获得了高电子迁移率AlGaN/GaN异质结材料.通过NH_3/H_2混合气体与H_2交替通入反应室的方法对GaN模板和GaN半绝缘衬底进行高温预处理.研究结果表明,NH_3/H_2能够抑制GaN的分解,避免粗糙表面,但不利于去除表面的杂质,黄光带峰相对强度较高;H_2促进GaN分解,随时间延长GaN分解加剧,导致模板表面粗糙不平,AlGaN/GaN HEMT材料二维电子气迁移率降低.采用NH_3/H_2混合气体与H_2交替气氛模式处理模板或衬底表面,能够清洁表面,去除表面杂质,获得平滑的生长表面和外延材料表面,有利于提高AlGaN/GaN HEMT材料电学性能.在GaN衬底上外延AlGaN/GaN HEMT材料,2DEG迁移率达到2113 cm~2/V·s,电学性能良好.     

表面预处理对石墨烯上范德瓦耳斯外延生长GaN材料的影响

基于范德瓦耳斯外延生长的氮化镓/石墨烯材料异质生长界面仅靠较弱的范德瓦耳斯力束缚,具有低位错、易剥离等优势,近年来引起了人们的广泛关注.采用NH_3/H_2混合气体对石墨烯表面进行预处理,研究了不同NH_3/H_2比对石墨烯表面形貌、拉曼散射的影响,探讨了石墨烯在NH_3和H_2混合气氛下的表面预处理机制,最后在石墨烯上外延生长了1.6μm厚的GaN薄膜材料.实验结果表明:石墨烯中褶皱处的C原子更容易与气体发生刻蚀反应,刻蚀方向沿着褶皱进行;适当NH_3/H_2比的混合气体对石墨烯进行表面预处理可有效改善石墨烯上GaN材料的晶体质量.本研究提供了一种可有效提高GaN晶体质量的石墨烯表面预处理方法,可为进一步研究二维材料上高质量的GaN外延生长提供参考.     

Performance analysis of GaN-based high-electron-mobility transistors with postpassivation plasma treatment

AlGaN/GaN high-electron-mobility transistors(HEMTs)with postpassivation plasma treatment are demonstrated and investigated for the first time.The results show that postpassivation plasma treatment can reduce the gate leakage and enhance the drain current.Comparing with the conventional devices,the gate leakage of Al Ga N/Ga N HEMTs with postpassivation plasma decreases greatly while the drain current increases.Capacitance-voltage measurement and frequencydependent conductance method are used to study the surface and interface traps.The mechanism analysis indicates that the surface traps in the access region can be reduced by postpassivation plasma treatment and thus suppress the effect of virtual gate,which can explain the improvement of DC characteristics of devices.Moreover,the density and time constant of interface traps under the gate are extracted and analyzed.
