Output Power of an AlGaN/GaN HFET on Sapphire Substrate
-
Abstract
The low breakdown voltage of AlGaN/GaN HFETs,which is caused by the poor buffer layer of GaN epitaxial wafer,is improved through mesa isolation and implantation isolation.Annealing at 500℃ for 50s after the gate metal deposition yields the best performance for an Ni-AlGaN/GaN diode.In particular,the ideality factor and barrier height reach 1.5 and 0.87eV,respectively.Optimization is achieved by comparing the performance of the gate and output power of AlGaN/GaN HFETs fabricated under different conditions.The output power of a 1mm-gate-wide AlGaN/GaN HFET on sapphire substrate is 4.57W, with a power added efficiency of 55.1% at 8GHz.-
