Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of microelectronics, and in particular relates to a high electron mobility transistor and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique [0002] With the improvement of technology level, the existing first and second generation semiconductor materials can no longer meet the needs of higher frequency and higher power electronic devices, while electronic devices based on nitride semiconductor materials can meet this requirement, greatly improving device performance. Due to the high two-dimensional electron gas density and high electron mobility in the AlGaN / GaN heterostructure, it has very good application prospects in high-power microwave devices. [0003] Passivation of AlGaN / GaN is particularly important because there are Al and Ga atoms combined with oxygen on the surface of AlGaN / GaN high electron mobility transistors, which reduces the concentration of two-dimensional electron gas generated by po...
