Problems solved by technology

[0004] Although the breakdown voltage of the double-recess structure 4H-SiC MESFET is increased due to the fact that half the length of the source side of the gate is recessed into the N-type channel layer, the saturation leakage current has not been substantially improved.
And in practice, the process of reactive ion etching (RIE) will form lattice damage on the surface of the drift region of the device, resulting in a decrease in the effective mobility of carriers in the N-type channel layer, thereby reducing the drain current. In terms of current output characteristics manifested as a degradation of the saturation current

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of field effect transistors, and especially discloses a field effect transistor with a three-sag structure and a preparation method thereof. The invention aims to provide a field effect transistor with a three-sag structure which has wide-channel deep sags and has higher output current and breakdown voltage and better frequency characteristic, and a preparation method thereof. The technical scheme adopted is as follows: a 4h-SiC half-insulating substrate, a P-type buffer layer and an N-type channel layer are arranged from top to bottom; a source cap layer and a drain cap layer are respectively arranged at the two sides of the N-type channel layer; a source electrode and a drain electrode are respectively arranged on the surfaces of the source cap layer and the drain cap layer; a ladder-shaped gate electrode is arranged in the middle of the N-type channel layer and close to the side where the source cap layer is arranged; and a left channel and a right channel are respectively formed at the two sides of the gate electrode and the N-type channel layer.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of field effect transistors, in particular to a field effect transistor with a three-recess structure and a preparation method thereof. Background technique: [0002] SiC materials have outstanding material and electrical properties such as wide band gap, high breakdown electric field, high saturated electron migration velocity, and high thermal conductivity, making them suitable for high-frequency and high-power device applications, especially high temperature, high voltage, aerospace, satellite, etc. It has great potential in high-frequency high-power device applications in harsh environments. In SiC allomorphs, the electron mobility of 4H-SiC with hexagonal close-packed wurtzite structure is nearly three times that of 6H-SiC, so 4H-SiC materials are used in high-frequency and high-power devices, especially in metal-semiconductor fields. Effect transistor (MESFET) occupies a major position in the applica...
