摘要
We report on a GaN metal-oxide-semiconductor high electron mobility transistor (MOS-HEMT) using atomic-layer deposited (ALD) Al2O3 as the gate dielectric. Through further decreasing the thickness of the gate oxide to 3.5 nm and optimizing the device fabrication process,a device with maximum transconductance of 150 mS/mm was produced. The drain current of this 0.8 μm gate-length MOS-HEMT could reach 800 mA/mm at +3.0 V gate bias. Compared to a conventional AlGaN/GaN HEMT of similar design,better interface property,lower leakage current,and smaller capacitance-voltage (C-V) hysteresis were obtained,and the superiority of this MOS-HEMT device structure with ALD Al2O3 gate dielectric was exhibited.
