Abstract

The invention discloses an HEMT structure with a modulated carbon-doped gallium nitride high-resistance layer and a preparation method of the structure. The HEMT structure comprises a substrate, a GaN nucleating layer, a GaN buffer layer, a GaN:C / GaN superlattice high-resistance layer and an AlGaN barrier layer from bottom to top successively, the high-resistance layer is formed by connecting GaN:C intentional doping layers and unintentional doping GaN layers alternatively, the thickness of the single GaN:C intentional doping layer is 5-500nm, and the thickness of the single unintentional doping GaN layer is 5-500nm. GaN:C / GaN superlattices can improve the resistance of a gallium nitride material but not reduce the crystal quality, and the high voltage withstanding characteristic, reliability and service life of a GaN / AlGaN heterojunction HEMT device can be improved.
