A physics-based analytical expression that predicts the charge, electrical field and potential distributions along the gated region of the GaN HEMT channel has been developed. Unlike the gradual channel approximation (GCA), the proposed model considers the non-uniform variation of the concentration under the gated region as a function of terminal applied voltages. In addition, the model can capture the influence of mobility and channel temperature on the charge distribution trend. The comparison with the hydrodynamic (HD) numerical simulation showed a high agreement of the proposed model with numerical data for different bias conditions considering the self-heating and quantization of the electron concentration. The analytical nature of the model allows us to reduce the computational and time cost of the simulation. Also, it can be used as a core expression to develop a complete physics-based transistor Ⅳ model without GCA limitation.

In this work, the GaN p-MISFET with LPCVD-SiNx is studied as a gate dielectric to improve device performance. By changing the Si/N stoichiometry of SiNx, it is found that the channel hole mobility can be effectively enhanced with Si-rich SiNx gate dielectric, which leads to a respectably improved drive current of GaN p-FET. The record high channel mobility of 19.4 cm2/(V?s) was achieved in the device featuring an Enhancement-mode channel. Benefiting from the significantly improved channel mobility, the fabricated E-mode GaN p-MISFET is capable of delivering a decent-high current of 1.6 mA/mm, while simultaneously featuring a negative threshold-voltage (VTH) of –2.3 V (defining at a stringent criteria of 10 μA/mm). The device also exhibits a well pinch-off at 0 V with low leakage current of 1 nA/mm. This suggests that a decent E-mode operation of the fabricated p-FET is obtained. In addition, the VTH shows excellent stability, while the threshold-voltage hysteresis ΔVTH is as small as 0.1 V for a gate voltage swing up to –10 V, which is among the best results reported in the literature. The results indicate that optimizing the Si/N stoichiometry of LPCVD-SiNx is a promising approach to improve the device performance of GaN p-MISFET.

Amorphous oxide semiconductors (AOS) have unique advantages in transparent and flexible thin film transistors (TFTs) applications, compared to low-temperature polycrystalline-Si (LTPS). However, intrinsic AOS TFTs are difficult to obtain field-effect mobility (μFE) higher than LTPS (100 cm2/(V·s)). Here, we design ZnAlSnO (ZATO) homojunction structure TFTs to obtainμFE = 113.8 cm2/(V·s). The device demonstrates optimized comprehensive electrical properties with an off-current of about 1.5 × 10–11 A, a threshold voltage of –1.71 V, and a subthreshold swing of 0.372 V/dec. There are two kinds of gradient coupled in the homojunction active layer, which are micro-crystallization and carrier suppressor concentration gradient distribution so that the device can reduce off-current and shift the threshold voltage positively while maintaining high field-effect mobility. Our research in the homojunction active layer points to a promising direction for obtaining excellent-performance AOS TFTs.
