Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to semiconductor technology. Background technique [0002] Compared with high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) based on AlGaAs / GaAs (AlGaAs / GaAs) heterojunctions, HEMT devices based on AlGaN / GaN (AlGaN / GaN) heterojunctions have the following advantages: [0003] (1) The two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) concentration at the AlGaN / GaN heterojunction interface is relatively high (up to 1013cm-2), which is nearly an order of magnitude higher than the 2DEG concentration at the AlGaAs / GaAs heterojunction interface. Therefore, based on AlGaN / GaN heterojunction HEMT will have higher output power density. As a mass-produced product, the power density of HEMT devices based on AlGaN / GaN heterojunction has reached more than 10W / mm, which is nearly 20 times higher than that of GaAs-based HEMT devices. [0004] (2) Since GaN is a wide bandgap semiconductor, its operating temperature is high and can work normally above 500Β°C, w...
