Threshold voltage modulation mechanism of AlGaN/GaN metal-insulator-semiconductor high-electron mobility transistors with fluorinated Al2O3 as gate dielectrics
[摘要]：The enhancement-mode (E-mode) AlGaN/GaN metal-insulator-semiconductor high-electron mobility transistors (MISHEMTs) were realized by using fluorinated Al2O3 as gate dielectrics. The variations in binding-energy spectrum and valance-band spectrum in fluorinated-Al2O3/AlGaN/GaN are studied in this Letter, providing insights to mechanism underlying drastic threshold voltage (V-th) modulation of AlGaN/GaN MISHEMTs with fluorinated Al2O3 gate dielectrics. It was found that not the surface potential but rather the negative charges in Al2O3 gate dielectrics are the primary factor responsible for conversion from depletion-mode (D-mode) to E-mode AlGaN/GaN MISHEMTs by using fluorinated Al2O3 as gate dielectrics.
