Abstract

HfO2을 게이트 산화막으로 갖는 AlGaN/GaN 기반 고이동도 전계효과 트랜지스터(high electron mobility transistor, HEMT)의 노멀리 오프(normally-off) 작동 구현을 위하여 게이트 리세스(gate-recess) 깊이에 따른 소자 특성이 시뮬레 이션을 통하여 분석되었다. 전통적인 HEMT 구조, 3 nm의 두께를 갖는 게이트 리세스된 HEMT 구조, 게이트 영역에 AlGaN 층을 갖지 않는 HEMT 구조가 모사되었다. 전통적인 HEMT 구조는 노멀리 온(normally-on) 특성을 나타내었 으며, 0 V의 게이트 전압 및 15 V의 드레인 전압 환경에서 0.35 A의 드레인 전류 특성을 나타내었다. 3 nm의 두께를 갖는 게이트 리세스된 HEMT 구조는 2DEG(2-dimensional electron gas) 채널의 전자 농도 감소로 인해, 같은 전압 인 가 조건에서 0.15 A의 드레인 전류 값을 보였다. 게이트 영역에 AlGaN 층을 갖지 않는 HEMT 구조는 뚜렷한 노멀리 오프 동작을 나타내었으며, 0 V의 동작전압 값을 확인할 수 있었다.
AlGaN/GaN based HfO2 MOSHEMT (metal oxide semiconductor high electron transistor) with different gate recess depth was simulate to demonstrate a successful normally-off operation of the transistor. Three types of the HEMT structures including a conventional HEMT, a gate-recessed HEMT with 3 nm thick AlGaN layer, and MIS-HEMT without AlGaN layer in the gate region. The conventional HEMT showed a normally-on characteristics with a drain current of 0.35 A at VG = 0 V and VDS = 15 V. The recessed HEMT with 3 nm AlGaN layer exhibited a decreased drain current of 0.15 A under the same bias condition due to the decrease of electron concentration in 2DEG (2-dimensional electron gas) channel. For the last HEMT structure, distinctive normally- off behavior of the transistor was observed, and the turn-on voltage was shifted to 0 V.
