Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductor devices, in particular to a GaN-based HEMT device with low ohmic contact resistivity and a preparation method thereof.
Background
The high electron mobility transistor (High Electron Mobility Transistor, HEMT) has the advantages of high frequency, high voltage, high temperature and the like, and is a future development direction of solid-state microwave power devices and power electronic devices. The GaN-based HEMT has the advantages of large forbidden bandwidth, high breakdown field intensity, high saturated electron drift rate, good chemical stability and the like, and becomes a core device for realizing high-frequency, high-power and high-efficiency application scenes.
The key of the high-performance GaN HEMT device is to increase the saturation current density (I dmax ) And decreasing knee voltage (V) knee ) Both can be achieved by reducing the source-drain series resistance. The source-drain series resistor comprises a channel resistor and a source-drain ohmic contact resistor Rc, so that the channel resistor can be reduced through reasonable epitaxial structure and device structure design on one hand, and the source-drain ohmic contact resistor can be reduced on the other hand, and particularly under the condition of device size miniaturization, the source-drain ohmic contact becomes a key factor for determining device performance.
In recent years, the use of secondary epitaxy to grow an N-type heavily doped GaN layer in a source-drain ohmic contact region becomes an important technology for reducing the ohmic contact resistance of a GaN-based HEMT, and the technology utilizes heavily doped GaN to contact with metal, so that the formed metal-semiconductor contact barrier width is very narrow, large current is facilitated to be generated by electron tunneling, and extremely low ohmic contact resistance smaller than 0.1 ohm-mm can be realized even though an unannealed ohmic metal layer is adopted.
The N-type GaN secondary epitaxy can be realized by Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE) and Metal Organic Chemical Vapor Deposition (MOCVD) technologies, silicon or germanium is adopted as an N-type doping source, and in the GaN secondary epitaxy process, atomic separation and diffusion are easily caused by high-temperature growth, so that the polarization effect of the existing heterogeneous interface is weakened, and the characteristic degradation of two-dimensional electron gas (2 DEG) is caused. In addition, high doses of Si or Ge atoms incorporated can also cause distortion of the GaN lattice, leading to degradation of GaN crystal quality and surface morphology.
In summary, the existing HEMT device technology is difficult to achieve both low ohmic contact and good 2DEG characteristics and material surface morphology, and based on this, the invention provides a GaN-based HEMT device with low ohmic contact resistivity and a preparation method thereof.
