Background
With the development of modern weaponry and aerospace, nuclear energy, communication technology, automotive electronics, and switching power supplies, higher demands are being placed on semiconductor performance. GaN and GaN-based materials, as a representative of third generation wide bandgap semiconductor materials, have a large bandgap (3.4 eV) and a high electron saturation rate (2×10) 7 cm/s), high breakdown field strength,high heat conductivity, corrosion resistance and the like, and is considered as an excellent material for high-voltage high-frequency high-power electronic devices. In addition, gaN can form a modulation doped AlGaN/GaN heterojunction structure with AlGaN, and the structure can form a two-dimensional electron gas with high electron concentration and high electron mobility at room temperature, so that an AlGaN/GaN High Electron Mobility Transistor (HEMT) is one of the most important device types in the gallium nitride field.
Due to the defects of AlGaN/GaN crystal epitaxial surface defects, metal/semiconductor Schottky contact quality and the like, the HEMT device with the traditional Schottky gate structure has the defects of serious gate leakage, small gate working voltage swing and the like, and the performance advantages of the GaN-based HEMT device are seriously limited. To cope with this problem, a method of forming a MOS structure by interposing an oxide dielectric layer between a gate electrode and an AlGaN barrier layer is currently generally employed.
The preparation method of the gate dielectric layer mainly comprises PECVD (plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition), LPCVD (low pressure chemical vapor deposition), ALD (atomic layer deposition), PVD (physical deposition) and other methods, and the methods have advantages and disadvantages. ALD deposited thin films are high in quality, but are mostly used for experimental experiments, are not compatible with the traditional semiconductor process, and are slow in deposition speed and difficult in mass production; PECVD/LPCVD deposited silicon nitride and silicon dioxide have inferior gate control capability as compared with high dielectric constant dielectric structures due to low dielectric constants of the materials themselves; PVD is capable of depositing high dielectric constant dielectrics, but has physical damage to the epitaxy, resulting in increased epitaxial surface defects and degraded device current. Based on the above situation, how to realize the rapid and low-cost preparation of the high-dielectric-constant gate dielectric on the premise of being compatible with the traditional silicon MOS process is a problem to be solved urgently for GaN-based MOS-HEMT devices.
