Problems solved by technology

However, in the HEMT epitaxy process, in order to prevent the GaN channel from being destroyed, the AlGaN barrier layer cannot be grown at high temperature, resulting in insufficient surface mobility of Al atoms and Ga atoms
In this case, TMAl, TMGa and SiH 4 Passing into the reaction chamber will further reduce the surface mobility of Al atoms and Ga atoms, increase the lattice defects of the AlGaN barrier layer and cause Al component segregation

Abstract

The invention provides an AlGaN barrier layer in an AlGaN/GaN HEMT and a growth method of the AlGaN barrier layer. The AlGaN barrier layer in the AlGaN/GaN HEMT comprises a non-doped first AlGaN layer, a periodic silicon doped second AlGaN layer and a non-doped third AlGaN layer. The second AlGaN layer is composed of a multi-period non-doped AlGaN layer and a silicon-doped AlGaN layer. The AlGaN barrier layer can effectively avoid lattice defects and Al component segregation caused by SiH4 doping while improving the surface density of two-dimensional electron gas, and ensures the mobility of the two-dimensional electron gas and the reliability of the HEMT device.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductors, in particular to an AlGaN / GaN HEMT epitaxial structure and a growth method thereof. Background technique [0002] In the AlGaN / GaN HEMT structure, the surface density of the two-dimensional electron gas is an important factor affecting the device characteristics such as saturation current, transconductance, and on-state resistance. Although thickening the AlGaN barrier layer and increasing the Al composition in the AlGaN barrier layer can increase the surface density of the two-dimensional electron gas, when the thickness of the AlGaN barrier layer and the Al composition in it exceed a certain range, the AlGaN potential The barrier layer will relax, which will reduce the gas surface density of two-dimensional electrons, and will generate crystal defects at the AlGaN / GaN interface, thereby reducing the mobility of two-dimensional electron gas and damaging the dynamic characteristics and rel...
