GaN/AlGaN heterostructures are currently the most attractive device structures because of the extremely strong spontaneous and piezoelectric polarization effects between GaN and AlGaN, resulting in the formation of a two-dimensional electron gas (2-DEG) between GaN/AlGaN with high electron concentration and high electron mobility, with electron concentrations as high as 10 12 -10 13 cm -2 The electron mobility can reach 2000cm 2 V; this makes GaN/AlGaN High Electron Mobility Transistors (HEMTs) the most important device type in the field of gallium nitride devices.
In order to further improve the performance of the device, gaN HEMT devices with different structures are continuously proposed. In the radio frequency field, through etching AlGaN barrier layers at the inclination angles in the gate length direction, groove gate structures with different depths in the gate length direction are manufactured, and the structure can greatly improve the gain effect and linearity of the device. The GaN HEMT has a field plate structure with a certain inclination angle in the field of power electronic devices, can replace the traditional multi-field plate structure, and better reduces the electric field intensity at the grid electrode when the device works reversely.
CN 108417628A discloses a GaN HEMT device and a preparation method, the GaN HEMT device comprises a substrate, a GaN epitaxial layer and a gate dielectric layer are sequentially arranged on the upper surface of the substrate from bottom to top, and a gate electrode, a source electrode and a drain electrode which penetrate through the gate dielectric layer and are in contact with the GaN epitaxial layer; the gate dielectric layer comprises a first gate dielectric layer and a second gate dielectric layer with different properties; a first gate groove is formed in the first gate dielectric layer, and a second gate groove is formed in the second gate dielectric layer; the first gate trench sidewall tilt angle is less than the second gate trench sidewall tilt angle. The structure ensures that the inclination angle of the side wall of the first gate groove is gentle, the inclination angle of the side wall of the second gate groove is steep, the holes formed by the gate metal barrier layer are reduced, and meanwhile, the parasitic capacitance is reduced. However, the method for forming the first gate groove and the second gate groove is a photoetching method, the exposure of different areas needs to be controlled, the requirements on the processing precision of the photoetching process are extremely high, the repeatability of the process is poor, and large-scale industrial application is difficult to realize.

Wherein the gate dielectric layer adopts SiO 2 The thin film has good compactness and less trap charge, can reduce gate leakage current of the GaN device, can enable the GaN device to have good dynamic characteristics, and can remarkably improve performance and stability of the device. But this method cannot be used to produce field plate structures with angled structures.
The process for preparing the dip angle structure in the prior art is complex, and industrial production with good repeatability cannot be performed under the condition of the existing process precision. Therefore, there is a need to provide a method for manufacturing a tilt gate structure with controllable precision and good repeatability.
