Embodiment Construction

[0019] refer to Figure 2a The reason for the current collapse phenomenon of ordinary HEMT devices (taking AlGaN / GaN devices as an example) is that in the off state of the device, negative charges will be accumulated at the interface between the AlGaN layer 3 and the insulating dielectric layer 6 on both sides of the gate metal 4 to form negative charges In the accumulation region 21 , due to electrostatic induction, these negative charges will reduce or even completely deplete the two-dimensional electron gas in the lower channel region, forming a channel depletion region 22 . When the gate voltage rises and the device transitions from the off state to the on state, the two-dimensional electron gas under the gate rises under the control of the gate voltage, and the channel under the gate is turned on, but the negative charges in the interface charge accumulation region are relatively low The deep energy level cannot be released in time, so the two-dimensional electron gas in ...

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a high electron mobility transistor (High Electron Mobility Transistor, HEMT), in particular to a group III nitride HEMT device. Background technique [0002] When the HEMT device uses group III nitride semiconductors, due to the piezoelectric polarization and spontaneous polarization effects, a high-concentration two-dimensional electron gas can be formed on the heterostructure (Heterostructure), such as: AlGaN / GaN. In addition, HEMT devices use group III nitride semiconductors, which can obtain high insulation breakdown electric field strength and good high temperature resistance characteristics. HEMTs with group III nitride semiconductors with heterostructures can be used not only as high-frequency devices, but also as high-voltage / high-current power switching devices. [0003] When the existing Group III nitride semiconductor HEMT devices are used as high-frequency devices or high-voltage and high-power switching devices, ...
