Description
本発明は、表面が水素終端となっているダイヤモンドの表面伝導層をチャネルとした電界効果トランジスタに関する。 The present invention relates to a field effect transistor whose channel is a surface conduction layer of diamond whose surface is hydrogen terminated.
本出願人は、先に二硫化モリブデンをチャネルとし、ゲートに有機強誘電体を用いた電界効果トランジスタを提案している(非特許文献1)。
これに対して本発明は、水素終端ダイヤモンドの表面伝導層をチャネルとした電界効果トランジスタである。
The applicant has previously proposed a field effect transistor in which molybdenum disulfide is used as a channel and an organic ferroelectric is used as a gate (Non-Patent Document 1).
On the other hand, the present invention is a field effect transistor in which the surface conduction layer of hydrogen-terminated diamond is a channel.
本発明は、高い表面キャリア密度を有する水素終端表面からなるダイヤモンドを用いた電界効果トランジスタの提供を目的とする。 An object of the present invention is to provide a field effect transistor using a diamond comprising a hydrogen-terminated surface having a high surface carrier density.
本発明に係る電界効果トランジスタは、水素終端ダイヤモンドの表面伝導層からなるチャネルに、強誘電体からなるゲートを組み合せたことを特徴とする。 A field effect transistor according to the present invention is characterized in that a channel made of a surface conduction layer of hydrogen-terminated diamond is combined with a gate made of a ferroelectric.
表面が水素終端からなるダイヤモンドの表面には、低抵抗のp型表面伝導層を有する。
この表面伝導層は、高い表面キャリア密度(>1013cm−2),低い表面準位密度(>1011cm−2)を有するとともに、その層の厚みは約10nm以下と電流制御に有利な浅いキャリア分布となっている点に特徴がある。
このような表面が水素終端表面になっているダイヤモンドは、マイクロプラズマCVD法等を用いてエピタキシャル成長させることで得られる。
また、ダイヤモンド表面を水素中でアニール処理することでも得られる。
A low resistance p-type surface conductive layer is provided on the surface of the diamond whose surface is hydrogen-terminated.
This surface conductive layer has high surface carrier density (> 10 13 cm -2 ), low surface state density (> 10 11 cm -2 ), and the thickness of the layer is about 10 nm or less, which is advantageous for current control It is characterized in that it has a shallow carrier distribution.
Such a diamond having a hydrogen-terminated surface can be obtained by epitaxial growth using a micro plasma CVD method or the like.
It can also be obtained by annealing the diamond surface in hydrogen.
ここで、強誘電体は前記水素終端ダイヤモンド表面に300℃以下の低温で薄膜形成されたものであることが好ましい。
ダイヤモンドの水素終端表面は300℃を越えると、一部が酸素終端表面に変化する恐れがあるからである。
Here, it is preferable that the ferroelectric is a thin film formed on the surface of the hydrogen-terminated diamond at a low temperature of 300 ° C. or less.
This is because when the hydrogen-terminated surface of diamond exceeds 300 ° C., a part may change to an oxygen-terminated surface.
本発明に係る電界効果トランジスタの具体的な形態例としては、水素終端ダイヤモンドの表面伝導層上にソース及びドレイン電極を形成し、前記ソース電極とドレイン電極との間であって前記水素終端ダイヤモンドの表面伝導層上に強誘電体の薄膜を積層し、前記強誘電体の薄膜にゲート電極を形成した例が挙げられる。 As a specific embodiment of the field effect transistor according to the present invention, source and drain electrodes are formed on a surface conduction layer of hydrogen-terminated diamond, and the hydrogen-terminated diamond is between the source electrode and the drain electrode. The example which laminated | stacked the ferroelectric thin film on the surface conduction layer, and formed the gate electrode in the thin film of the said ferroelectric substance is mentioned.
本発明において強誘電体は、ダイヤモンドの水素終端表面にこの水素終端構造を破壊することなく積層できるものであれば特に限定はないが、約100〜150℃の低温で積層できる点でフッ素系の有機薄膜が好ましく、例えばフッ化ビニリデン(VDF)と、三フッ化エチレン(TrFE)との共重合体薄膜が例として挙げられる。
また、本発明において強誘電体とは、外部に電場がなくても電気双極子が整列しており、且つ、双極子の方向が電場によって変化できる物質をいう。
In the present invention, the ferroelectric is not particularly limited as long as it can be laminated on the hydrogen-terminated surface of diamond without destroying this hydrogen-terminated structure, but it is fluorine-based in that it can be laminated at a low temperature of about 100 to 150 ° C. An organic thin film is preferable, for example, a copolymer thin film of vinylidene fluoride (VDF) and ethylene trifluoride (TrFE) can be mentioned as an example.
Further, in the present invention, a ferroelectric refers to a substance in which electric dipoles are aligned without an external electric field, and the direction of the dipole can be changed by the electric field.
本発明に係る電界効果トランジスタは、水素終端ダイヤモンドの表面伝導層をチャネルとし、ゲートに強誘電体を用いたことにより、この強誘電体の強い分極により効率的にキャリアを誘起することができ、自発分極によるノーマリーオフ動作の実現が期待される。 In the field effect transistor according to the present invention, the surface conduction layer of hydrogen-terminated diamond is a channel, and by using a ferroelectric for the gate, carriers can be efficiently induced by the strong polarization of the ferroelectric, The realization of a normally-off operation by spontaneous polarization is expected.

A thin film of a ferroelectric such as VDF / TrFE is formed between the source electrode and the drain electrode to be a gate on the surface conductive layer, and a gate electrode is formed on the thin film Yes.
このような構造のFETを試作し評価したので、以下説明する。
マイクロ波プラズマCVD法を用いて、人工ダイヤモンドをエピタキシャル成長させて製作したダイヤモンド基板の表面を必要に応じて洗浄し、次にこの表面にフォトリソグラフィ法により、白金又は金等からなるソース電極とドレイン電極を形成した。
次に必要に応じてマスキング処理し、ゲート絶縁膜として75/25mol%のVDF/TrFEコポリマーをスピンコート法により塗布し、その後に110〜120℃にて乾燥させた。
形成されたVDF/TrFEの薄膜の膜厚は、約130nmであった。
