Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of field effect transistors, and in particular to a tensile strain high hole mobility field effect transistor and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Compared with silicon materials used in traditional electronic power devices, III-nitride semiconductor materials have superior properties such as large bandgap, high breakdown electric field strength, high saturated electron mobility, large thermal conductivity, small dielectric constant, and strong radiation resistance. In addition, the polarization-induced carrier density in gallium nitride is independent of temperature. Therefore, gallium nitride (GaN) is considered to be a good candidate material for power integrated circuits used in harsh environmental conditions.
[0003] In the past two years, GaN-based complementary logic circuits have been studied and demonstrated, and monolithic GaN CL gates with true "CMOS-like" behavior have been obtained. GaN-based complementary logic integrated circuits are currently in their infancy, and the performance of the device needs to be further optimized. The carrier concentration and mobility need to be improved, especially the low channel mobility and high on-resistance of the current GaN-based p-channel field effect transistor. On the one hand, the ionization energy of Mg impurities in GaN is very high, and the hole concentration is low; on the other hand, the large effective mass of holes greatly limits the hole mobility. Through first-principles calculations, it is found that the introduction of biaxial tensile strain in GaN can raise the spin-orbit coupling split band to above the light hole band and the heavy hole band. This effect changes the order of the top of the valence band and the characteristics of the wave function, which can greatly reduce the effective mass of holes and thus achieve the hole mobility of GaN. At present, the common method of introducing the required stress distribution in GaN during the metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) growth process is to use a substrate with a larger lattice constant and change the barrier layer material. However, due to the lattice mismatch, the crystal growth quality will be degraded. Therefore, the existing GaN-based p-channel field effect transistors have low hole mobility and lack effective means to improve the hole mobility. The introduction of tensile stress is unstable and it is difficult to control the introduced stress intensity. The introduction of stress is difficult and can easily cause film cracking. The introduction of stress will introduce a large number of defects and dislocations, making it difficult to obtain high-quality materials. Summary of the invention
