The gate leakage current of MIS-HEMT is about three orders of magnitude lower than that of A1GaN/CaN HEMT. Through the recessed-gate etching, the transconductanee increases effectively. When the recessed-gate depth is 1.02 nm, the best interface performance with Tit----(0.20--1.59) p^s and Dit :(0.55-1.08)x 1012 cm-2.eV- 1 can be obtained. After chlorine-based etching, the interface trap density reduces considerably without generating any new type of trap. The accumulated chlorine ions and the N vacancies in the AIGaN surface caused by the plasma etching can degrade the breakdown and the high frequency performances of devices. By comparing the characteristics of recessed-gate MIS-HEMTs with different etching times, it is found that a low power chlorine-based plasma etching for a short time (15 s in this paper) can enhance the performances of MIS-HEMTs effectively.展开更多
