Изучение характеристик транзисторов на гетероструктурах нитрида галлия, выращенных методом аммиачной молекулярно-лучевой эпитаксии на подложках сапфира и кремния

Abstract

AbstractsAmmonia molecular-beam epitaxy has been used to grow gallium nitride (GaN) transistor heterostructures on sapphire and silicon substrates. GaN transistors with a 1.2-mm periphery fabricated on substrates of both types exhibited similar high static characteristics: saturation current density above 0.75 A/mm, transconductance above 300 mS/mm, and breakdown voltage above 120 V. Measurements of the small-signal parameters showed that transistors based on silicon substrates possessed high gain in a frequency range up to 5 GHz; the specific output power at 1 GHz amounted to 5 W/mm for transistors on sapphire substrate and 2 W/mm for transistors on silicon substrate.
