特别要注意的是,本发明的增强型HEMT元件还包括氮化物场板108,用以降低栅极转角处的高电场,以避免漏电流并提升元件的可靠度。在一实施例中,氮化物场板108配置于阻障层106上且包括一个主图案107以及位于主图案侧边的多个次图案109a~109d。在一实施例中,P型半导体层110配置于氮化物场板108的主图案107上。更具体地说,氮化物场板108的主图案107的一边界突出于P型半导体层110的一边界,而氮化物场板108的主图案107的另一边界对齐于P型半导体层110的另一边界。
此外,氮化物场板108的次图案109a~109d位于栅极G与漏极D之间的阻障层106上,以进一步均匀分散栅极与漏极之间的高电场聚集效应。
在一实施例中,氮化物场板108的材料包括III族氮化物,例如III-V族化合物半导体材料。在一实施例中,氮化物场板108的材料包括AlGaN、AlInN、AlN或AlGaInN或其组合,并掺杂有P型掺质(例如Mg)。在一实施例中,阻障层106与氮化物场板108的组成实质上相同。在一实施例中,阻障层106与氮化物场板108的组成元素大致上相同,仅掺杂浓度不同。在一实施例中,阻障层106与氮化物场板108的材料相同,阻障层106为未经掺杂,而氮化物场板108掺杂有P型掺质。
在一实施例中,阻障层106与氮化物场板108的材料均包括AlyGa1-yN,其中y为0~1,例如0.1~1。在另一实施例中,阻障层106的材料包括AlyGa1-yN,氮化物场板108的材料包括AlzGa1-zN,其中y、z均为0~1,且y不等于z。在一实施例中,y大于z。在另一实施例中,y小于z。
在一实施例中,氮化物场板108的厚度约20埃至400埃之间,且其掺杂浓度为约1015至1018原子/cm3。在一实施例中,氮化物场板108的平均掺杂浓度低于P型半导体层110的平均掺杂浓度。
在一实施例中,氮化物场板108的次图案109a~109d的宽度实质上相等,如图1的增强型HEMT元件10所示。在另一实施例中,氮化物场板108的次图案109a~109d的宽度随着接近漏极D而逐渐减少,如图2的增强型HEMT元件20所示。更具体地说,如图2所示,次图案109a的宽度大于次图案109b的宽度,次图案109b的宽度大于次图案109c的宽度,且次图案109c的宽度大于次图案109d的宽度。此外,氮化物场板108的主图案107的宽度大于次图案109a~109d中至少一者的宽度。

在一实施例中,氮化物场板108的次图案109a~109d之间的间隙实质上相等,如图1的增强型HEMT元件10、图2的增强型HEMT元件20、图3的增强型HEMT元件30、图4的增强型HEMT元件40所示。在另一实施例中,氮化物场板108的次图案109a~109d之间的间隙随着接近漏极D而逐渐减少,如图5的增强型HEMT元件50、图6的增强型HEMT元件60、图7的增强型HEMT元件70、图8的增强型HEMT元件80所示。更具体地说,如图5至图8所示,次图案109a与次图案109b之间的间隙大于次图案109b与次图案109c之间的间隙,且次图案109b与次图案109c之间的间隙大于次图案109c与次图案109d之间的间隙。此外,主图案107与次图案109a之间的间隙大于或等于次图案109a~109d之间的间隙中的至少一者。
在一实施例中,氮化物场板108的次图案109a~109d的掺杂浓度可实质上相等。在另一实施例中,氮化物场板108的次图案109a~109d的掺杂浓度随着接近漏极D而逐渐减少。以上两种掺杂浓度的态样适用于图1至图8的增强型HEMT元件10~80中。此外,氮化物场板108的主图案107的掺杂浓度大于或等于次图案109a~109d中至少一者的掺杂浓度。
在上述实施例中,是以氮化物场板具有一个主图案与四个次图案为例来说明之,但并不用以限定本发明。在另一实施例中,本发明的氮化物场板可具有一个、两个、三个或大于四个次图案。另外,本发明的氮化物场板的次图案的图案分布、厚度、掺杂浓度不以上述实施例为限,可依制造工艺需要调整,只要能达到有效分散电场,提升元件的可靠度即可。
综上所述,在本发明实施例中,以栅极下方的P型半导体层来空乏阻障层中所形成的二维电子气,以形成增强型或常关型HEMT元件。此外,藉由配置本发明的氮化物场板于P型半导体层与阻障层之间,可有效分散电场,提升元件的可靠度。更具体地说,本发明的氮化物场板具有凸出于P型半导体层的主图案以及位于栅极与漏极之间的多个次图案。主图案有助于降低栅极转角处的电场。次图案用以形成二维电子气密度较低的区域。以此配置方式,能有效分散电场、提高击穿电压并减少漏电流。
虽然本发明已以实施例揭露如上,然其并非用以限定本发明,任何本领域技术人员,在不脱离本发明的精神和范围内,当可作些许的更动与润饰,故本发明的保护范围当视所附的权利要求所界定者为准。
