Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of microelectronics, and in particular relates to a nonpolar InAlN / GaN high electron mobility transistor and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Due to the existence of high-mobility two-dimensional electron gas in the channel of GaN-based heterostructures, GaN has become the most ideal material for the preparation of high-performance electronic devices. Since K.Han et al. first proposed the concept of GaN-based heterostructures, heterostructures represented by AlGaN / GaN, InAlN / GaN, AlN / GaN, etc. have achieved fruitful results in the preparation of high electron mobility transistors.

Problems solved by technology

However, because the fluorine ion implantation process will cause the increase of trap states and defect damage in the barrier layer, which will affect the performance of the device, especially the stability of the device under high temperature conditions; The purpose of the carrier, but the polarization charge at the interface of the heterostructure still exists; the prior art shows that during the device process such as gate dielectric deposition, the polarization charge will cause the negative drift of the device threshold voltage, and the reliability There are hidden dangers

[0008] To sum up, at present, there are many problems in the technology of realizing enhanced devices at home and abroad, mainly reflected in the poor process repeatability, damage to materials and devices caused by the process, and the influence of the process on the stability of devices, etc., thus affecting the performance of enhanced devices. and reliability
