Description

Radio frequency device without gold ohmic contact based on two-step annealing and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of radio frequency devices, in particular to a radio frequency device without gold ohmic contact based on two-step annealing and a preparation method thereof.
Background
One of the main problems of the current radio frequency power device is that the dynamic on-resistance is low, which causes the maximum switching frequency of the device to be reduced and the switching loss to be increased. Contact metallization schemes for source and drain electrodes have been studied and optimized for over twenty years. In order to ensure a stable, reliable and low-resistance ohmic contact HEMT device, a metal stack scheme of Ti/Al/Ni/Au is most commonly used. The contact layer, the covering layer, the barrier layer and the cap layer are respectively arranged from bottom to top. Ti which is commonly adopted as a contact layer can react with N in AlGaN to form TiN, so that a large amount of N vacancies are generated, and electrons are easy to generate a tunneling effect. Al is often used as the capping layer to prevent the donor concentration from decreasing due to outdiffusion of Al and Ga elements in AlGaN. Ni is often used as an isolation layer to prevent Au from diffusing to the AlGaN surface. Au is often used as a cap layer to prevent Ti and Al from being oxidized to form a high-resistance oxide layer, resulting in an increase in contact resistance. On the basis, the low-resistance contact is formed by annealing at the temperature ranging from 800 ℃ to 950 ℃ after the metal is stacked.
However, the mainstream semiconductor production field line in the domestic market is a HEMT device produced by a Si-CMOS process line, and a heavy metal Au in the traditional Ti/Al/Ni/Au scheme forms deep-level impurities in Si to pollute the CMOS process line. And the use of Au not only causes the formation of rough electrode surfaces and edges by high-temperature annealing, but also causes the occurrence of spike electric fields so as to reduce the breakdown characteristics of the device. Therefore, the low-temperature gold-free ohmic process is adopted, on one hand, the pollution problem caused by Au is avoided, so that the performance reliability of the HEMT device is improved, and on the other hand, the large-scale manufacturing of the Si-CMOS process line can be realized.
In the conventional non-gold ohmic contact electrodes such as W, Mo, Cu and the like, in the high-temperature annealing process, because a metal Al layer is generally required to be more than 100nm, the thickness of Al is far larger than that of a base layer Ti, and a large amount of unreacted Al is not melted with Ti-Al alloy which is agglomerated to form an island structure, so that the surface appearance and the edge appearance of a source-drain electrode are poor.

The buffer layer 3 is made of GaN or AlGaN with a thickness of 1 μm to 2 μm, and in this embodiment, a GaN buffer layer is preferred. The nitride channel layer 4 is made of GaN, AlGaN or InGaN, and has a thickness of 20-50 nm, and in this embodiment, a GaN channel layer is preferred. The nitride channel layer 4 is laminated with an insertion layer 5 and a nitride barrier layer 6, and the insertion layer 5 is in contact with the nitride channel layer 4. The inserting layer is an AlN inserting layer with the thickness of 1nm to 2 nm. The nitride barrier layer 6 is one of AlGaN, InAlAs, InAlN and InAlGaN, and has a thickness of 6-10 nm, and preferably, the nitride barrier layer 6 is InxAlyGa1-x-yN, x is more than or equal to 0 and less than or equal to 1, y is more than or equal to 0 and less than or equal to 1, and preferably, the nitride barrier layer 6 is AlGaN.

The contact layer is formed by circularly laminating a low-work-function metal M sublayer and a metal Al sublayer and comprises at least three sublayers, wherein the first sublayer and the last sublayer are metal M, the low-work-function metal M is selected from at least one of metals Ti, Ta, Mo and V, and preferably, the metal M is selected from Ti. The metal M is used as contact layer metal to react with N in the nitride channel layer to generate MN, so that a large number of N vacancies are formed, and tunneling effect of electrons is facilitated. For example, metal Al is inserted between Ti layers, so that the contact area between Ti and Al can be increased to form a multilayer Ti/Al lamination, the Ti contact layer reacts with nitrogen in nitride in the subsequent annealing environment, elements are diffused in the reaction process, especially excessive diffusion of the Al element can deteriorate the performance of the device, and the multilayer Ti/Al lamination can inhibit diffusion of Al under the condition of ensuring that Ti and N are fully reacted. Meanwhile, the use of a stack results in a reduction in annealing temperature with a constant total Al thickness for the multi-layer Ti/Al stack. For example, the contact layer is Ti/Al/Ti, Ti/Al/Ti/Al/Ti or Ti/Al/Ti/Al/Ti. Wherein the thickness of each sublayer is 5nm to 15nm, the total thickness of the contact layer is 20nm to 50nm, the total thickness of the metal M sublayer is not less than 20nm, the correlation exists between the thickness of the metal M and the thickness of the metal Al and the annealing temperature, when the thickness of the metal M is larger, the optimal annealing temperature for forming ohmic contact is 750 ℃ to 950 ℃, and when the thickness of the Al layer is larger, the optimal annealing temperature is about 550 ℃.
The covering layer is made of Al and has a thickness of 30nm to 50 nm. The thickness of the sublayer in the contact layer is not more than 150nm, and the sum of the thickness of the sublayer and the thickness of the covering layer is. The thickness relation between the contact layer and the covering layer is the key of the preparation of the nitride-based HEMT gold-free ohmic contact electrode. With the Al layer inserted into the Ti layer while keeping the total thickness of the Al layer constant, diffusion of Al can be suppressed under the condition of ensuring sufficient reaction of Ti with N in the nitride. And under the condition of ensuring that the total thickness of the Al is not changed, the annealing temperature is reduced by inserting the Al into the Ti layer, and the reliability of the device is ensured.
