Description
ここで、qは電子の電荷、nsはシート電子密度(cm−2)、σ1はAlxGa1−xN層11とAlyGa1−yN層12との分極差に基づく正のシート固定電荷密度、σ2はAlyGa1−yN層12とAlzGa1−zN層13との分極差に基づく負のシート固定電荷密度、t2とt3はそれぞれAlyGa1−yN層12とAlzGa1−zN層13の厚さ、ε2とε3はそれぞれAlyGa1−yN層12とAlzGa1−zN層13の誘電率、Cはチャネル層とゲート電極との間の単位面積キャパシタンス(ゲート容量とも称す)、Vgsはゲート・ソース間電圧、そしてVbは(1/q)×(ゲート電極のショットキー障壁高さ)を表す。
Vth=Vb−(1/C)・{σ1+σ2・t3ε2/(t2ε3+t3ε2)}・・(3)
また、1/C=t2/ε2+t3/ε3なので、式(3)は式(4)に変形することができる。
ここで、ε2≒ε3と仮定できるので、式(4)は式(5)に変形することができる。
また、σ1はAlxGa1−xN層11とAlyGa1−yN層12とのAl組成比に依存し、σ1=a(y−x)で表すことができ、σ2はAlyGa1−yN層12とAlzGa1−zN層13とのAl組成比に依存し、σ2=a(z−y)で表すことができる。なお、aは比例定数(C/cm2)を表す。
Vth≒Vb+a(x−z)t3/ε3−a(y−x)t2/ε3・・・(7)
ここで、比例定数aは実験的に求めることができ、a=8.65×10−6C/cm 2 の値を採用することができる。
