Description

Diamond-based nitrogen polar surface gallium nitride high-electron-mobility transistor and manufacturing method thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of semiconductor devices, and particularly relates to a gallium nitride high electron mobility transistor which can be used for manufacturing a microwave power amplifier and a monolithic microwave millimeter wave integrated circuit.
Background
With the continuous development of material epitaxy technology, device structure design and preparation process thereof, the performance of gallium nitride high electron mobility transistors is continuously improved, and the gallium nitride high electron mobility transistors become the first choice for preparing high-frequency high-power solid-state microwave power amplifiers. At present, gallium nitride electronic devices are mainly manufactured based on gallium polar plane heterostructure materials, because epitaxial growth technology of gallium polar plane materials is mature, high crystallization quality and low background carrier concentration are easy to realize. However, the nitrogen polar plane gallium nitride heterostructure material has many natural advantages in improving the working frequency and output power of the device. The barrier layer in the nitrogen polar face gallium nitride heterojunction forms a natural back barrier below the channel layer, the two-dimensional electron gas confinement property can be improved, and the thickness of the barrier layer is not limited by an equal proportion reduction rule. Meanwhile, the narrow-bandgap gallium nitride channel layer is positioned on the top of the epitaxial material, so that low ohmic contact resistance is easy to realize.
However, there are two main problems in the epitaxial growth of nitrogen polar plane gallium nitride device material and the improvement of device performance. Firstly, polarity inversion is easy to occur in the epitaxial growth process of the nitrogen polar surface gallium nitride material, the polarity control difficulty is high, the background carrier concentration of the epitaxial nitrogen polar surface gallium nitride material is high, and a body leakage channel is easy to form to reduce the breakdown voltage and the output power of the device. Secondly, under the working state of the nitrogen polar surface gallium nitride device with high bias voltage and high power density, the junction temperature of the device is rapidly increased due to the heat accumulation effect of the active region of the device, and the reliability and the stability of the device are rapidly deteriorated. The traditional nitrogen polar surface gallium nitride device material is epitaxially grown on a low-thermal-conductivity substrate, the heat dissipation capacity is limited, the heat diffusion to the surrounding environment is limited, and the current collapse effect is easily generated. Therefore, in order to further improve the performance of the nitrogen polar surface gallium nitride device, a substrate with higher thermal conductivity needs to be adopted, the problem of heat accumulation of an active region of the device is solved, the heat transfer capacity near the active region is improved, the self-heating effect of the device is improved, the attenuation of the carrier transport characteristic is inhibited, and the reliability and the stability of the device are improved. Meanwhile, innovations need to be made on the gallium nitride material epitaxial technology of the nitrogen polar surface, so that the background carrier concentration is effectively reduced, and the quality of epitaxial materials is improved.
The structure of a conventional nitrogen polar plane gallium nitride high electron mobility transistor is shown in figure 1, and comprises a substrate, a nucleating layer, a buffer layer, a barrier layer, an insertion layer and a channel layer from bottom to top, wherein the substrate is mostly a low-thermal conductivity substrate such as silicon, sapphire, silicon carbide and the like, and the channel layer is provided with a gate electrode, a source electrode and a drain electrode. This device has the following disadvantages:
firstly, the material polarity control difficulty is high when the gallium nitride material with the nitrogen polar surface is extended, polarity inversion is easy to occur, and the gallium nitride material with the gallium polar surface appears;
secondly, the background carrier concentration of the grown nitrogen polar surface gallium nitride material is high, iron doping is needed to compensate the background carrier, and the difficulty in material epitaxy process control is increased;
thirdly, the heat conductivity of the substrate is low, the heat of the active region of the nitrogen polar surface gallium nitride device cannot be dissipated immediately, the current collapse phenomenon of the device is caused by the heat accumulation effect, and the reliability and the stability of the device are deteriorated;
fourthly, when the nitrogen polar surface gallium nitride device is transferred to the high-thermal conductivity diamond substrate, the device peeling and transferring process is complex, the etching process is difficult to control accurately, the peeling interface is rough and uneven, the device peeling integrity is low, and the performance of the device after peeling is degraded;
fifthly, the problems of large lattice mismatch, large crystal phase mismatch, large heat mismatch and the like exist between the substrate diamond with high heat conductivity and the nitrogen polar surface gallium nitride material, and the direct heteroepitaxial growth of the nitrogen polar surface gallium nitride material on the substrate diamond is difficult to realize high crystallization quality.
