Abstract

The invention discloses an AIN / GaN reinforced metal-insulator-semiconductor field effect transistor, mainly solving the problem that high-threshold voltage and large output current can not be realized at the same time in the existing device. The AIN / GaN reinforced metal-insulator-semiconductor field effect transistor is mainly characterized in that an AIN barrier layer is adopted to increase the concentration of channel two-dimensional electron gas and increase the output current at the time of high-threshold voltage. The manufacturing process comprises the following steps: growing an AIN nucleating layer on a substrate; growing an AI0.07GaN epitaxial layer on the AIN nucleating layer; growing a GaN layer on the AI0.07GaN epitaxial layer; growing an AIN barrier layer with a thickness of 3-6nm on the GaN layer; after the completion of material growing, photo-etching and vaporizing source-drain metals on the AIN barrier layer; photo-etching and etching a grooved gate between the source and the drain; after the grooved gate is etched, depositing SiN gate dielectric layers on the surfaces of the grooved gate and the AIN barrier layer; and photo-etching and vaporizing gate metals on the SiN gate dielectric layers and interconnecting the metals. The invention is applicable to the production of switch devices with high-threshold voltage and small transmission resistance.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of microelectronics and relates to a semiconductor device, in particular to a structure and a realization method of an AlN / GaN enhanced metal-insulator-semiconductor field effect transistor, which is mainly used as a switching device requiring a large threshold voltage. Background technique [0002] GaN-based materials can be used to manufacture high-temperature, high-frequency and high-power electronic devices due to their advantages of large band gap, high electron saturation drift velocity, high breakdown field strength and good thermal conductivity. At the same time, due to the inherent polarization characteristics of GaN-based materials, the AlGaN / G aN heterojunction itself has a high-concentration two-dimensional electron gas channel, which makes the AlGaN / GaN heterojunction high electron mobility transistor suitable for high-temperature devices and High-power microwave devices have shown obvious advan...
