Description

Micro-acceleration gauge based on high electron mobility transistor (HEMT)
Technical field
The present invention relates to the micro-acceleration gauge field, specifically is a kind of micro-acceleration gauge based on high electron mobility transistor (HEMT).
Background technology
Existing micro-acceleration gauge mostly is the silicon piezoresistance type accelerometer, piezoresistive effect based on silicon piezoresistive pressure sensor is realized, utilize silicon piezoresistive pressure sensor to realize detecting with the linear response of external pressure,, technical maturity simple in structure because of it, working band are wide etc., and plurality of advantages becomes one of the research focus in little inertia device field.But because the restriction of silicon piezoresistive pressure sensor piezoresistance coefficient is difficult to further improve response sensitivity; In addition, the change in resistance of silicon piezoresistive pressure sensor is subjected to Temperature Influence bigger, diminishes rapidly with the rising of temperature, and above-mentioned shortcoming has all limited the application of silicon piezoresistive pressure sensor on high sensor.
Therefore, for adapting to micro-acceleration gauge application pressing for to the high sensitivity micro-acceleration gauge, in recent years, the various countries scientist begins field effect transistor is applied to the research of micromechanics sensing arrangement in succession, and in the middle of research, prove the feasibility that field effect transistor is applied to micro-acceleration gauge, verified the highly sensitive characteristic that micro-acceleration gauge possessed of applied field effect transistor.Show according to relevant report both domestic and external, present various countries scientist's research direction metal-semiconductor field effect transistor (the Metal-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor in field effect transistor that focuses mostly on, MESFET), metal-oxide layer-semiconductor-field-effect transistor (Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor, MOSFET).Yet there are no High Electron Mobility Transistor is applied in correlative study on the micro-acceleration gauge.
Described High Electron Mobility Transistor (High Electronic Mobility Transistor, be called for short HEMT) is to grow up early 1980s, is based on modulation doping and a kind of novel transistor of setting up.High electron mobility transistor (HEMT) adopts modulation-doped structure, undope in heterojunction narrow bandgap semiconductor material one side, and at wide bandgap semiconductor materials one side doping donor impurity, donor impurity ionization produces electronics and positively charged alms giver's ionized impurity center like this.The Fermi level of the wide bandgap semiconductor materials that the n type mixes in high electron mobility transistor (HEMT) is near conduction band, and the Fermi level of narrow bandgap semiconductor material is substantially in the centre position in forbidden band, because the fermi level position difference of heterojunction two layers of material, electronics will be transferred to lower low bandgap material one side from higher relatively wide bandgap material one side of Fermi level, make electronics and alms giver's ionized impurity apart in the raceway groove, in raceway groove, form two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG).Simultaneously, set up a highfield by space charge, under the effect of highfield, near can the be with heterojunction boundary bends.Under the extra electric field effect, band curvature strengthens, and so just can form narrow inversion layer potential well, forms quantum well in raceway groove.Because the de Broglie wave wavelength of the width of quantum well and electronics is comparable, energy generation quantization on perpendicular to the z direction of heterojunction boundary, 2DEG loses degree of freedom in the motion of z direction, only in that be parallel to can free movement on the X at interface, the Y direction.2DEG has many noticeable characteristics, and its electron mobility μ is far above the electron mobility of body material.By the non-doping separation layer of growth between doped layer and raceway groove, make the further apart of 2DEG and alms giver's ionized impurity center, reduced the influence of ionized impurity scattering, further improved mobility.Under the low temperature, the influence of ionized impurity scattering reduces, and the electrons transport property of 2DEG is more superior.
Compare with common field effect transistor, the raceway groove transmission of HEMT has utilized quantum size effect.Owing on the one dimension direction, utilize the band-edge energy difference of heterojunction that electronics is limited, make the quantization of energy of electronics in lengthwise movement, formed the very two-dimensional electron gas of high concentration (2DEG).2DEG motion in a lateral direction is unrestricted in the raceway groove, and is separated from each other on channel electrons and the donor ion space, thereby channel electrons is subjected to the foreign ion scattering process hardly when lateral transport, thereby has very high mobility.And the strong concentration that depends on 2DEG in the raceway groove of the channel conduction of HEMT, when the channel part material is subjected to stress, the band structure generation respective change of semiconductor material, can cause restriction to change, have influence on the concentration of raceway groove 2DEG, as utilize this nano effect to come the conversion of realizable force electricity, can greatly improve the detection sensitivity of microsensor.
