Description

Gallium nitride transistor and method for manufacturing the same
Technical Field
The present invention relates to the field of semiconductors, and more particularly, to a gallium nitride transistor and a method for manufacturing the same.
Background
Compared with semiconductor materials such as silicon, gallium arsenide and the like, the wide-bandgap semiconductor material gallium nitride (GaN) has a larger bandgap width (3.4eV), a stronger critical breakdown field strength and a higher electron transfer rate, is widely concerned by researchers at home and abroad, and has huge advantages and potentials in the aspects of power electronic power devices and high-frequency power devices. As a typical representative of the third generation wide bandgap semiconductor, the gallium nitride material not only has the characteristics of large forbidden bandwidth, high critical breakdown electric field, large electron saturation drift velocity, high temperature resistance, radiation resistance, good chemical stability and the like, but also can form a material with high concentration (more than 10) with aluminum gallium nitrogen and the like due to the polarization effect of the gallium nitride material13cm-2) And high mobility (greater than 2000 cm)2The two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) of/V.s) is very suitable for preparing power switch devices, and becomes a research hotspot in the field of current power devices.
At present, a gallium nitride single crystal substrate is difficult to obtain, and most of gallium nitride films are realized by performing heteroepitaxy on other substrates. Common substrates include silicon, sapphire, and silicon carbide. Due to the large lattice mismatch and thermal strain between gan and the substrate, the defect density of gan epitaxial materials can be 3 to 4 orders of magnitude higher than that of si materials. In addition, in order to achieve a high breakdown voltage, carbon, iron or magnesium doping is performed on the high-resistance nitride layer. Defects and impurities in the gallium nitride channel layer can form trap levels. At a reverse high pressure, the trap energy level will trap electrons. As a result, when the gallium nitride transistor is turned on again, the on-resistance increases, and the device stability and reliability deteriorate.
As a further improved device structure, composite stacks are formed in the gate region and the drain region of the gallium nitride transistor, respectively. In a reverse off state, holes are injected into the channel layer using the drain region hole injection layer, so that electrons trapped at the trap level can be released. Therefore, a substantially constant on-resistance can be obtained when the gallium nitride transistor is turned back on.
However, the method of manufacturing the gallium nitride transistor is complicated in process, including secondary photolithography after the patterning step of the insertion layer and additional epitaxial growth, and thus has a problem of secondary photolithography dislocation. As a result, in the composite stack of the gate region, the gate structure layer and the insertion layer are misaligned with each other, resulting in the malfunction of the gan transistor.

The channel layer 104 and the barrier layer 105 form a heterojunction, and a two-dimensional electron gas is formed between the channel layer 104 and the barrier layer 105.
Gate stack 210 is situated on barrier layer 105. In this embodiment, the first insertion layer 211 is located between the gate structure layer 212 and the barrier layer 105, and both the gate structure layer 212 and the first insertion layer 211 are p-type doped nitride, for example, composed of any one of aluminum nitride, aluminum gallium nitride, or gallium nitride, and further, the dopant profile is any one of fixed composition, graded composition, and abrupt change in composition, including any one of p-type dopants selected from magnesium, calcium, zinc beryllium, or a combination.
