Abstract

The invention provides a gallium-nitride field effect transistor, and the field effect transistor comprises a substrate, an epitaxial layer, a passivation layer, a first oxidation layer, a source electrode, a drain electrode, a grid electrode, a second oxidation layer and a field plate layer, wherein the epitaxial layer, the passivation layer, the first oxidation layer, the source electrode, the drain electrode, the grid electrode, the second oxidation layer and the field plate layer are sequentially formed on the substrate. The field plate layer is electrically connected with the source electrode through a metal lead, and is partly opposite to the grid electrode. The invention also provides a manufacturing method for the gallium-nitride field effect transistor. According to the invention, the grid electrode and the field plate layer are arranged to be partly opposite, so the current collapse can be inhibited so as to improve the breakdown characteristics of a device. Moreover, the electric field density between the first field plate layer and the drain electrode can be reduced, thereby improving the withstand voltage of the device.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductor device manufacturing, in particular to a gallium nitride field effect transistor and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique [0002] With the increasing demand for efficient and complete power conversion circuits and systems, power devices with low power consumption and high-speed characteristics have recently attracted a lot of attention. Gallium nitride GaN is the third-generation wide-bandgap semiconductor material. Due to its large forbidden band width (3.4eV), high electron saturation rate (2e7cm / s), and high breakdown electric field (1e10--3e10V / cm), it is more High thermal conductivity, corrosion resistance and radiation resistance. It has strong advantages under high-voltage, high-frequency, high-temperature, high-power and radiation-resistant environmental conditions. It is considered to be the most researched short-wave optoelectronic device and high-voltage high-frequency...
