[0040] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, wherein the accompanying drawings constitute a part of this application and are used together with the embodiments of the present invention to illustrate the principles of the present invention, and are not used to limit the scope of the present invention.
[0041] Current traditional preparation technologies, such as magnetron sputtering and pulsed laser deposition, expose many problems that are difficult to ignore when growing β-Ga2O3. On the one hand, the mechanical flexibility of the grown β-Ga2O3 is seriously insufficient, which makes it difficult to separate it from the substrate to form an independent self-supporting film and the subsequent mechanical transfer process, greatly hindering the manufacturing process of related devices. On the other hand, interface quality problems occur frequently, and there are many defects in the interface between β-Ga2O3 and the substrate, which not only affects the performance of the film, but also has a negative impact on the overall performance of the field-effect transistor based on β-Ga2O3, resulting in increased leakage current, reduced breakdown voltage and other problems, which limit the performance of the device in practical applications.
[0042] Furthermore, when characterizing the performance of field-effect transistor devices, the subthreshold swing is crucial. The subthreshold swing reflects the speed at which the device switches from the off state (off-state leakage current) to the on state (on-state current) in the subthreshold region. A smaller subthreshold swing means the device can switch states faster, thereby increasing switching speed. Furthermore, the subthreshold swing directly affects the energy efficiency of the field-effect transistor. A lower subthreshold swing allows the transistor to achieve significant current changes at lower gate voltages, thereby reducing power consumption. When operating at low voltages, the lower the subthreshold swing of the field-effect transistor, the better the switching characteristics that the device can maintain in the subthreshold region. This is critical for the design of ultra-low-power digital and analog circuits because it affects the performance and reliability of the circuits at extremely low operating voltages. However, traditional β-Ga2O3 preparation technology has difficulty achieving low subthreshold swings and cannot meet the current demand for high-performance, low-power devices.
[0043] To solve the above problems, the present invention provides a method for preparing a β-Ga2O3 self-supporting film, comprising the steps of:
[0044] S101: Thin film growth: Pulsed laser deposition (PLD) is used to sequentially deposit a sacrificial layer and a dielectric layer on a SrTiO3 substrate.
[0045] S102: Etching and picking up: A selective etching solution is prepared to directionally etch the sacrificial layer. After the dielectric layer is separated from the sacrificial layer, a Si / SiO2 substrate is used to pick up the dielectric layer.
[0046] S103: Cleaning and annealing: Clean and remove the residual selective etching solution, and then anneal the Si / SiO2 substrate with the dielectric layer to obtain a self-supporting film.
[0047] Furthermore, after annealing the self-supporting film, film transfer is performed to prepare for subsequent preparation. The film transfer includes: using polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) to press on the Si / SiO2 substrate with the β-Ga2O3 self-supporting film, holding it for 5-10 seconds, and then quickly peeling off the PDMS to pick up and transfer the β-Ga2O3 self-supporting film.
[0048] Among them, the sacrificial layer is lanthanum strontium manganese oxide (LSMO); the SrTiO3 substrate is 111 type, strontium titanate, abbreviated as STO; the dielectric layer is β-Ga2O3 (-201) type.
[0049] The selective etching solution is a mixture of KI and HCl. The sacrificial LSMO layer is reduced from a +4 (+3) valence state of the Mn ions in the LSMO to a +2 valence state in the KI+HCl selective etching solution. This allows the LSMO layer to dissolve rapidly, resulting in a high-quality, independent β-Ga2O3(-2O1) thin film with excellent mechanical stability.
[0050] The concentration of the KI solution is 1 mol / L, the HCl solution is prepared by adding 1 g of 37% HCl to 100 g of deionized water, and the volume ratio of the KI solution to the HCl solution is 1:1.
[0051] Among them, the tiny lattice mismatch of the substrate SrTiO3 (111) plays a key role in the growth of LSMO on it. Its tiny lattice mismatch will generate a certain amount of stress between the film and the substrate, and this stress can regulate the strain state of the film. Through strain regulation, the lattice distortion during the film growth process can be reduced, thereby promoting the uniform growth of the film. In addition, the small lattice mismatch means that the lattice constants of the substrate and the film material are very close, which can effectively promote epitaxial growth. This situation helps the film material replicate the lattice structure of the substrate at the atomic level, forming a high-quality, single-crystalline film and improving the structural stability of the LSMO layer.
[0052] Specifically, the lattice constant of SrTiO3(111) is approximately (along the (111) plane), LSMO (such as La 0.7 Sr 0.3 The lattice constant of MnO3 is approximately (The difference with SrTiO3 is about 0.6%). This tiny lattice mismatch (~0.6%) will generate compressive stress at the interface during epitaxial growth of the film (the LSMO lattice is smaller than SrTiO3, and the film is compressed). When the lattice mismatch is small (<1%), the film adapts to the substrate lattice through elastic deformation rather than releasing stress through defects such as dislocations. This elastic strain can be evenly distributed in the film. The LSMO lattice is slightly distorted under compressive stress, which may change its electronic structure (such as Mn-O bond length and bond angle), thereby affecting the magnetic and electrical transport properties. In addition, compressive strain can enhance the ferromagnetic order of LSMO or regulate the magnetoresistance effect. Therefore, a small mismatch (~0.6%) can not only introduce sufficient strain to regulate the film properties, but also avoid film rupture or a surge in defect density due to excessive mismatch, forming a high-quality single crystal film.
[0053] Among them, the PLD growth sacrificial layer uses a KrF excimer laser as the laser source, and grows the LSMO sacrificial layer on the SrTiO3 substrate at a growth temperature of 750°C, a frequency of 4HZ, and 13Pa, and cools it to room temperature at a cooling rate of 7°C / min;
[0054] The wavelength of the laser output from the laser source is 248 nm.
[0055] The PLD-grown dielectric layer used a KrF excimer laser as the laser source, and a β-Ga2O3 layer was grown on the LSMO sacrificial layer at a growth temperature of 750°C, a frequency of 4 Hz, and 7 Pa. The heterostructure was then cooled to room temperature at a cooling rate of 7°C / min.
[0056] The wavelength of the laser output from the laser source is 248 nm.
[0057] Among them, PLD has the advantages of multi-material adaptability, high growth rate, strong controllability and suitability for growing heterostructures and multilayer films, which is conducive to the growth of the lanthanum strontium manganese oxide layer and β-Ga2O3 thin film layer heterostructure of the present invention.
[0058] On the one hand, the present invention also provides a β-Ga2O3 self-supporting film obtained by the above preparation method.
[0059] In one aspect, the present invention further provides a method for preparing a β-Ga2O3 self-supporting thin film field effect transistor device, comprising the steps of:

[0061] S202: Using a dry transfer technique, thin layers of MoS2 and β-Ga2O3 free-standing films are sequentially stacked onto a Si / SiO2 substrate to obtain a MoS2 / β-Ga2O3 free-standing film heterostructure;
[0062] S203: PMMA photoresist is coated on the surface of the heterostructure, and fine patterning is performed using electron beam lithography technology. After development and fixing steps, 5 nm of chromium and 50 nm of gold are evaporated using electron beam evaporation technology to form the required vertical structure field effect transistor device.
[0063] Among them, when transferring β-Ga2O3 self-supporting films in the preparation of field-effect transistors by dry transfer, a three-axis transfer platform is used for transfer and it needs to be heated to 80-90°C and wait for 20 minutes before slowly lifting it up.
[0064] On the one hand, the present invention also provides a β-Ga2O3 self-supporting thin film field effect transistor device, comprising a substrate, a semiconductor layer, a dielectric layer and an electrode stacked in sequence, wherein the substrate is a 280nm±50nm Si / SiO2 substrate oxidized by dry oxygen; the semiconductor layer is a thin layer of MoS2 with a thickness of 6nm-7nm; the dielectric layer is a β-Ga2O3 self-supporting thin film with a thickness of 100nm±5nm; and the electrode is composed of 5nm chromium and 50nm gold.
[0065] The electrodes were prepared using an eLINE Plus electron beam exposure system, with exposure parameters set to 160 μC / cm2 exposure dose, 0.72 nA beam current, and a 1000 μm × 1000 μm square area. The developer used was a 1:3 mixture of deionized water and isopropyl alcohol, with a development time of 20 seconds. Immediately after development, the silicon wafer was quickly placed in an isopropyl alcohol solution for a 25-second fixer.
[0066] Compared with the existing technology, the β-Ga2O3 self-supporting film provided by the present invention has good mechanical support and is suitable for a variety of device architectures. Its high hardness and good mechanical stability enable it to maintain integrity under stress and deformation conditions, so simple mechanical peeling and transfer technology can be used to prepare high-reliability devices. The field-effect transistor device made of MoS2 material with high electron mobility and band gap adjustability has excellent performance such as high switching speed and operating frequency, which promotes the widespread application of β-Ga2O3 in wearable and other fields.

Its high hardness and good mechanical stability enable it to maintain integrity under stress and deformation conditions, making it suitable for use in high-reliability devices. The surface interface quality is also improved to a certain extent, and it has a low leakage current, thereby making the device have better energy consumption.
[0068] The present invention utilizes the characteristics of MoS2 in transition metal dichalcogenides (TMD) materials, such as high electron mobility, bandgap tunability, good interface compatibility, and the high bandgap width, large dielectric constant, and excellent thermal stability of β-Ga2O3 self-supporting films, so that the device can be as low as 10 at a bias voltage of 1V and a gate voltage of -4V to 4V. -13 A leakage current, and can provide a higher on-state current, achieving 10 5 On / Off ratio, with 125mV dec -1 The low subthreshold swing enables low power operation of the device.
[0069] The β-Ga2O3 self-supporting film of the present invention provides field-effect transistors with better device performance and reliability due to its advantages such as high dielectric properties, mechanical strength and thermal stability, and is particularly suitable for high-power, high-frequency and low-power electronic devices.
[0070] The selective etching solution used in the present invention is a mixed acidic solution of KI (1 mol / L) + HCl (1:1 volume ratio). This solution is highly selective and can directionally etch the LSMO layer. The β-Ga2O3 self-supporting film remains stable in the solution for a long time, which provides reliable protection for the subsequent preparation process.
[0071] Example 1
[0072] A method for preparing a β-Ga2O3 self-supporting film, comprising:
[0073] S101: A LSMO sacrificial layer was grown on a SrTiO3 substrate using pulsed laser deposition (PLD) technology using a KrF excimer laser (248 nm) as the laser source at a growth temperature of 750°C, a frequency of 4 Hz, and a pressure of 13 Pa. A β-Ga2O3 layer was then grown on the LSMO sacrificial layer at a growth temperature of 750°C, a frequency of 4 Hz, and a pressure of 7 Pa. The layer was then cooled to room temperature at a cooling rate of 7°C / min to prepare a SrTiO3 / LSMO / β-Ga2O structure.
[0074] S102: A mixed acidic solution prepared by KI+HCl is used as a selective etching solution to directionally etch the LSMO layer. The β-Ga2O3 self-supporting film required by the present invention can remain stable for a long time in this solution. After etching the LSMO for 6 hours, the β-Ga2O3 self-supporting film is removed and separated from the substrate and floats on the surface of the selective etching solution. The β-Ga2O3 self-supporting film is picked up using a Si / SiO2 substrate with a SiO2 thickness of 280nm±50nm and oxidized with dry oxygen;
[0075] The concentration of the KI solution is 1 mol / L, the HCl solution is prepared by adding 1 g of 37% HCl to 100 g of deionized water, and the volume ratio of the KI solution to the HCl solution is 1:1.

[0077] S104: Press dimethylsiloxane (PDMS) onto a Si / SiO2 substrate with an independent β-Ga2O3 self-supporting film, hold for 5-10 seconds, and then quickly peel off the PDMS to easily pick up and transfer the β-Ga2O3 self-supporting film for device preparation.
[0078] Specifically, PDMS is pressed onto a Si / SiO2 substrate with a β-Ga2O3 free-standing film attached. After holding for 5-10 seconds, the tape is completely adhered to the PDMS surface. The entire system is placed in a vacuum chamber and maintained at a pressure of -0.1 Pa for 60-90 degrees. After the β-Ga2O3 free-standing film on the substrate is tightly adhered to the PDMS, it is quickly peeled off and picked up to transfer the β-Ga2O3 free-standing film.
