Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a high-speed heterojunction FET by a method wherein p-type GaAs layers, which are arranged in an undoped GaAs layer on a semi-insulative GaAs substrate at regular intervals and are buried in the undoped GaAs layer, and an n-type AlGaAs layer on the undoped GaAs layer are made to intersect each other. CONSTITUTION:An undoped GaAs layer 2 is formed on a semi-insulative GaAs substrate 1 and Be ions are selectively implanted to bury fine rectangle-shaped p-type GaAs layers 3a to 3c in the layer 2 at equal intervals. An annealing is performed to activate, an n<+> AlGaAs layer 4 is superposed on the layer 2 to form a heterojunction and a two-dimensional electron gas layer is formed on the heterojunction interface. Then, a gate electrode 5 is formed intersecting orthogonally the layers 3a to 3c. A potential in the layer 2 over the layers 3a to 3c is near that in the layers 3a to 3c and is higher than that between the rectangle-shaped layers 3a and 3c, the two-dimensional electron gas layer concentrates and is formed on the heterojunction interface at the intermediate region between the layers 3a to 3b and the intermediate region between the layers 3b to 3c, the electron gas layer can be turned into a one-dimensional electron gas layer, mobility and a saturation velocity are improved and a heterojunction FET becomes a high-speed device.

A conventional heterojunction transistor, as shown in FIG.
After layer 2 and n+ type AfflGaAs layer 8 are sequentially laminated, an n1 type A layer is formed perpendicular to the gate electrode formation direction.
,, the RGaAs layer 8 was etched and removed at regular intervals with a width of less than 0.3 μm, thereby spatially separating the two-dimensional electron gas layer and making it one-dimensional.

The conventional heterojunction field effect transistor described above requires extremely fine processing to create a narrow groove (to achieve one-dimensionality, the width must be 0.3 μm or less, preferably 0.1 μm or less). The problem is that it is necessary.

In addition, since the gate electrode, which is usually formed to a thickness of 0.3 μm or less, is formed across a step, there is a drawback that the lithography (uniform etching when using etching) technique for forming the gate electrode is difficult.
