Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of microelectronics technology, and specifically relates to a p-channel metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET), which can be used to fabricate GaN-based power integrated circuits and complementary logic circuits. Technical Background
[0002] Compared to traditional silicon and gallium arsenide (GaAs) materials, gallium nitride (GaN) materials possess superior properties such as a wide bandgap, high electron drift velocity, high thermal conductivity, and high breakdown electric field, making them suitable for fabricating high-voltage, high-frequency, and high-power electronic devices. With the development of new energy vehicles, 5G communications, aerospace, and other fields, GaN-based power devices and power modules have been widely applied. However, in currently used GaN power modules, the peripheral drive circuits and logic units are still constructed from traditional silicon materials. This approach increases the size of the GaN power module and introduces parasitic inductance, significantly limiting the system's operating frequency and output power. The ideal solution is to fabricate the peripheral drive circuits and logic units using GaN materials, achieving monolithic integration of GaN power devices and GaN complementary logic circuits. In recent years, GaN-based complementary logic circuits have been extensively studied; however, current GaN complementary logic circuits have very low operating frequencies and output power, failing to meet the requirements of power integration. This is because the p-channel MOSFETs constituting these circuits have low channel mobility, high on-resistance, and low carrier concentration, severely limiting circuit performance.
[0003] Existing p-channel metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor structures based on GaN / AlGaN / GaN heterojunctions, such as Figure 1 As shown, from bottom to top, it includes: a Si substrate layer, a GaN buffer layer, an AlGaN barrier layer, a p-type GaN layer, and a gate dielectric layer. The gate dielectric layer has source and drain electrodes at its left and right ends, respectively, and a gate groove is etched in the middle, with the gate electrode located at the groove. This device has two main drawbacks: first, due to the use of GaN material as the p-type layer and conductive channel, the hole mobility is extremely low, severely limiting the device's operating speed; second, ionized impurity scattering and etching damage reduce the two-dimensional hole gas concentration and hole mobility, leading to a decrease in device output power. Summary of the Invention
