Problems solved by technology

However, due to the etching damage and interface state problems caused by etching, the performance of existing p-channel HEMT devices is far from the theoretical value.
The performance of the device has reached a relatively high level of p-channel GaN HEMT devices currently being studied, but there is still a long way to go from the theoretical limit of GaN, and there is still a lot of room for improvement in the output current, on-resistance and switch ratio of the device.

Abstract

The invention discloses a group III nitride groove gate normally-closed P-channel HEMT (High Electron Mobility Transistor) device and a manufacturing method thereof. The HEMT device comprises a double heterojunction structure formed by a first semiconductor, a second semiconductor and a third semiconductor, and the double heterojunction has double two-dimensional hole gas (2DHG). The third semiconductor has a band gap smaller than that of the second semiconductor, is easy to remove by adopting a photoelectrochemical corrosion (PEC) technology with energy band selection, and forms a groove structure; and the groove structure is matched with the gate structure, so that the two-dimensional hole gas in the second semiconductor corresponding to the region below the gate can be exhausted. According to the invention, the groove gate normally-closed P-channel HEMT device with large output current and low on-resistance can be effectively realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a normally-off P-channel transistor, in particular to a group III nitride D-2DHG (Double-2dimentional hole gas, two-dimensional hole gas) groove gate normally-off HEMT ( A High Electron Mobility Transistor) device and a preparation method thereof belong to the technical field of semiconductors. Background technique [0002] Power electronic devices are the core components of power electronic systems. With the rapid development of power electronics technology, the limitations of traditional silicon materials and second-generation semiconductor materials have become increasingly prominent, due to the urgent needs of power systems in terms of high frequency, low loss and high power capacity. The third-generation wide-bandgap semiconductor materials represented by GaN and SiC have been developed rapidly. GaN has the characteristics of large band gap, high saturation hole drift velocity, large critical breakdown electric field, an...
