Embodiment Construction

[0037] The present invention will be described below by taking an N-channel lateral transistor with an AlGaN / GaN heterojunction as an example in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0038] Such as figure 1 Shown, the characteristic of the structure of the present embodiment is:

[0039] Base region, source region and channel substrate contact formed by ion implantation based on one end of the GaN epitaxial layer; drain region formed by ion implantation based on the other end of the GaN epitaxial layer; the region of the GaN epitaxial layer close to the base region by ion implantation An N-type drift region is formed by implantation, and the remaining region of the GaN epitaxial layer (between the N-type drift region and the drain region) is formed with an AlGaN layer by heteroepitaxial growth. The length of the AlGaN / GaN heterojunction is 3-3 times the length of the N-type drift region. 10 times; the GaN epitaxial layer under the base region and the source region is ...

Abstract

The invention provides a lateral transistor with an AlGaN / GaN heterojunction and a production method of the lateral transistor. A part of a drift region of the device is the AlGaN / GaN heterojunction.The AlGaN / GaN heterojunction forms a high-density two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) at a heterojunction interface through spontaneous polarization and piezoelectric polarization effects, the 2DEG has a high migration rate in a heterojunction conducting channel, and therefore the lateral transistor provided with the AlGaN / GaN heterojunction has low conduction resistance. When the device is switched off, the 2DEG is exhausted, meanwhile a new electric field peak is introduced into the surface of the device, and therefore a peak electric field at a grid edge of the device is lowered. A galliumnitride material is formed through epitaxy on a substrate material, the heterojunction between a gallium nitride epitaxial layer and a substrate optimizes longitudinal electric field distribution of the transistor, and therefore the breakdown voltage of the device is increased.

Description
