摘要
AlN/GaN high-electron-mobility transistors （HEMTs） on SiC substrates were fabricated by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition （MOCVD） and then characterized. An Si/Ti/Al/Ni/Au stack was used to reduce ohmic contact resistance （0.33 g2.mm） at a low annealing temperature. The fabricated devices exhibited a maximum drain current density of 1.07 A/mm （Vows = I V） and a maximum peak extrinsic transconductance of 340 mS/mm. The off-state breakdown voltage of the device was 64 V with a gate-drain distance of 1.9 μm. The current gain extrinsic cutoff frequency fT and the maximum oscillation frequency fmax were 36 and 80 GHz with a 0.25 μm gate length, respectively.
