Two-dimensional electron gas transport properties have been investigated in nitride double-heterostructures. A striking effect has been observed that the two-dimensional electron gas mobility has been drastically enhanced in the AlGaN/GaN/AlGaN doubleheterostructure, compared with that in the conventional AlGaN/GaN singleheterostructure. The observed mobility enhancement has been shown to be mainly due to the enhanced polarization-induced electron confinement in the double-heterostructure, and additionally due to the improvement of the interface roughness in the structure. Device operation of an AlGaN/GaN/AlGaN double-heterostructure field effect transistor has been demonstrated: a maximum transconductance of 180 mS/mm has been obtained for a 0.4 mm-gate-length device. In the double-heterostructure using InGaN channel, the increased capacity for the two-dimensional electron gas has been observed. The AlGaN/(In)GaN/AlGaN double-heterostructures are effective for improving the electron transport properties.

ABSTRACTWe present the results of a theoretical study of the 2D electron gas mobility at a AlxGa1−xN/GaN heterointerface. All standard mechanisms, including scattering by acoustic and optical phonons, and remote and background (residual) impurities have been included in our calculation of theoretical mobility limits in a AlxGa1−xN/GaN structure. Comparison of calculations with experimental mobilities obtained from high quality MOCVD grown Al0.15Ga0.85N/GaN heterostructures shows that the low temperature mobility in these samples is dominated by scattering from ionized impurities, with a smaller contribution from acoustic phonons.
