The proposed model takes into account the effects of the LDD region length, the LDD region doping, the lengths of the gate materials and their respective work functions, along with all the major geometrical parameters of the MOSFET. The impact of the LDD region length, the LDD region doping, and the channel length on the channel potential is studied in detail. Furthermore, the threshold voltage of the device is calculated using the minimum middle channel potential, and the result obtained is compared with the DMG MOSFET threshold voltage to show the improvement in the threshold voltage roll-off. It is shown that the DMG-LDD MOSFET structure alleviates the problem of short channel effects （SCEs） and the drain induced barrier lowering （DIBL） more efficiently. The proposed model is verified by comparing the theoretical results with the simulated data obtained by using the commercially available ATLASTM 2D device simulator.展开更多

Based on the two-dimensional TCAD simulation, the direct current(DC) and radio frequency(RF) characteristics of the AlGaN/GaN/B_(0.01)Ga_(0.99)N structure HEMTs are theoretically studied. Our results show that the BGaN buffer device achieves good pinch-off quality and improves RF performance compared with GaN buffer device. The BGaN buffer device can allow a good immunity to shift of threshold voltage for the aspect ratio(LG/d)down to 6, which is much lower than that the GaN buffer device with L_G/d=11 can reach. Furthermore, due to a similar manner of enhancing 2 DEG confinement, the B_(0.01)Ga_(0.99)N buffer device has similar DC and RF characteristics to those the AlGaN buffer device possesses, and its ability to control short-channel effects(SCEs) is comparable to that of an Al_(0.03)Ga_(0.97)N buffer. Therefore, this BGaN buffer with very small B-content promises to be a new method to suppress SCEs in GaN HEMTs.展开更多
