A detailed characterization of 75 nm recessed gate AlGaN/GaN HEMTs on HR-Si (111) substrate is reported. Devices feature record performances with a maximum fMAX of 170 GHz and a DC peak transconductance of 520 mS/mm. These values demonstrate a clear improvement over non-recessed devices, setting a new record for fMAX in fully-passivated GaN-on-silicon HEMTs. Electroluminescence (EL) measurements reveal the presence of hot electrons. Finally, trapping phenomena have been investigated in detail: no significant trapping phenomena related to bulk traps was identified, confirming an excellent epilayer quality.

Abstract
A detailed characterization of 75 nm recessed gate AlGaN/GaN HEMTs on HR-Si (111) substrate is reported. Devices feature record performances with a maximum fMAX of 170 GHz and a DC peak transconductance of 520 mS/mm. These values demonstrate a clear improvement over non-recessed devices, setting a new record for fMAX in fully-passivated GaN-on-silicon HEMTs. Electroluminescence (EL) measurements reveal the presence of hot electrons. Finally, trapping phenomena have been investigated in detail: no significant trapping phenomena related to bulk traps was identified, confirming an excellent epilayer quality.File in questo prodotto:
