1.3 kV Reverse-Blocking AlGaN/GaN MISHEMT With Ultralow Turn-On Voltage 0.25 V
IEEE Journal of the Electron Devices Society(2021)
Abstract
A reverse-blocking AlGaN/GaN metal-insulator-semiconductor high electron mobility transistor (RB-MISHEMT) is proposed and fabricated. Compared with the conventional MISHEMT with ohmic drain, the proposed device features a hybrid Schottky-ohmic drain with a low work function Tungsten (W), based on which the state-of-the-art ultralow turn-on voltage (
${V} _{\mathrm{ on}}$
) of 0.25 V could be realized without degradation in on-state characteristics. In addition, the fabricated RB-MISHEMT exhibits the excellent reverse blocking voltage of −1332 V (at
${V} _{\mathrm{ GS}}= 0$
V) and forward blocking voltage of 1315 V (at
${V} _{\mathrm{ GS}} = -15$
V) with a specific on-resistance (
${R} _{\mathrm{ on,sp}}$
) of 3.5

. The good thermal stability could also be observed in fabricated RB-MISHEMT. The corresponding operation mechanism of RB-MISHEMT are also revealed by Silvaco ATLAS simulations. These results demonstrate the great potential in power electronics applications.
