Using the structure of Ti/Pt/Au, about a 200mV positive shift of threshold voltage is achieved by thermal annea- ling at 320℃ for 40min in N2 ambient. Finally, a stable and consistent enhancement-mode PHEMT is produced successfully with higher threshold voltage.展开更多

As known, decreasing bandgap energy of the base layer in HBT can result in a smaller turn-on voltage. Using InGaAs as a base material in GaAs HBT is a possible approach to achieve the aim. In this work, a novel InGaP/InGaAs/GaAs double heterojunction bipolar transistor (DHBT) structure with an InGaAs base was designed and grown by gas source molecular beam epitaxy (GSMBE). High-quality InGaAs/GaAs hetero epi-layers and a good doping figure were obtained through optimizing the layer structure and the growth condition. The DHBT devices of a 120 μm×120 μm emitter area were fabricated by normal process and the good DC performance was obtained. A breakdown voltage of 10 V and an offset voltage of just 0.4 V were achieved. These results indicate that the InGaP/InGaAs/GaAs DHBT is suitable for low power-dissipation and high power applications.展开更多

Well behaved split C-V characteristics with small capacitance frequency dispersion are confirmed after the insertion of the InCaP barrier layer. The direct-current Id-Vg measurements show both degradations of positive gate voltage shift and sub-threshold swing in the sub-threshold region, and degradation of positive △Vg in the oncurrent region. The Id-Vg degradation during the positive bias temperature instability tests is mainly contributed by the generation of near interface acceptor traps under stress. Specifically, the stress induced aeceptor traps contain both permanent and recoverable traps. Compared with surface channel InCaAs devices, stress induced recoverable donor traps are negligible in the buried channel ones.展开更多
