In this work, an AlGaN/GaN enhancement-mode high electron mobility transistor (HEMT) with two-step gate recess and electroless plating (EP) approaches is reported. Scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy surface analysis are used to analysis the related properties of the EP-gate structure. A positive threshold voltage Vthof 0.68 V is obtained for the enhancement-mode EP-HEMT. In addition, a traditional HEMT based on thermal-evaporation gate is compared for the demonstration of the studied EP-HEMT with the improved performance, such as a higher maximum drain saturation current of 228.9 mA/mm, a higher maximum transconductance of 107.2 mS/mm, a lower gate leakage current of 1.2 × 10–7 mA/mm, and a higher ON/OFF drain current ratio of 4.57 × 105.

We demonstrate a novel design of large-size device in AlGaN/GaN high-electron-mobility transistor (HEMT). Depletion mode (D-mode) HEMTs and enhancement mode (E-mode) HEMTs are fabricated in our research. The saturation current of D-mode HEMTs is over 6A. By using Cascode structure, the D-mode HEMT becomes a normally-off device efficiently, and the threshold voltage of it rises from-7V to 2V. By using BCB (Benzocyclobutene) as the passivation, the E-mode HEMT shows an excellent characteristic. Also, when the VGS of the E-mode HEMT is over 9V, it still shows a good performance.

In this work, a charge storage based enhancement mode (E-mode) AlGaN/GaN high electron mobility transistor (HEMT) is proposed and studied. A stacked gate dielectrics, consisting of a tunnel oxide, a charge trap layer and a blocking oxide are applied in the HEMT structure. The E-mode can be realized by negative charge storage within the charge trap layer during the programming process. The impact of the programming condition and the thickness of the dielectrics on the threshold voltage (Vth) are simulated systematically. It is found that the Vth increases with the increasing programming voltage and time due to the increase of the storage charge. Under proper programming condition, the Vth can be increased to more than 2 V. Moreover, It is also found that the Vth increases with the decrease of the thickness of the dielectrics. In addition, it is found that the breakdown voltage of such HEMT can be adjusted by varying the gate dielectric stacks.
