Abstract

This research investigates the enhanced device breakdown capabilities of silicon-based AlGaN/GaN High Electron Mobility Transistors (HEMT). By incorporating various back barrier materials, a significant improvement in peak electric field and breakdown voltage is observed. Specifically, the integration of iron (Fe) doping into the Gallium Nitride (GaN) back barrier layer, combined with different back barrier materials such as Aluminum Gallium Nitride (AlGaN) and Indium Gallium Nitride (InGaN), results in an impressive increase of up to 1700 V. This improvement is attributed to the reduction of peak electric field at the gate edge. The optimized layer configurations significantly contribute to the overall performance of silicon substrate GaN HEMT devices, making them promising candidates for high-voltage applications in electric vehicles and high-power applications.
