Problems solved by technology

[0002] With the commercial popularization of P-type GaN devices, GaN devices used in 5G radio frequency communications require smaller lateral dimensions, but with the reduction of lateral dimensions, the limitations of the lateral field plate of the drain are becoming more and more limited. protrude
This is because in the shorter gate-drain region, the slightly longer drain field plate will intensify the impact ionization phenomenon in the gate region, so the device failure problem caused by high electric field will appear in the gate edge region

Abstract

A semiconductor device comprises a substrate, a buffer layer, a channel layer, a barrier layer, a source electrode, a grid electrode, a drain electrode, a longitudinal field plate and a transverse field plate, the buffer layer, the channel layer and the barrier layer are sequentially stacked and formed above the substrate, and the source electrode, the grid electrode and the drain electrode are formed above the barrier layer at intervals. The longitudinal field plate is formed below the drain electrode and penetrates through at least part of the buffer layer, the channel layer and the barrier layer, and the transverse field plate is formed above the drain electrode and at least part of the transverse field plate is located between the drain electrode and the grid electrode. According to the semiconductor device, the high breakdown electric field characteristic is achieved by arranging the field plates of the transverse field plate and the longitudinal field plate; the longitudinal field plate and the transverse field plate play a role in dispersing electric field peaks, the longitudinal field plate below the drain electrode can effectively disperse a high electric field, and the off-state breakdown voltage of the device can be greatly improved by combining the drain electrode horizontal step field plate technology.
