چکیده
The advantage of GaN power devices in terms of performance is no longer hype but a reality that has empowered many power supply designers to build new applications that are more efficient, compact and able to operate in harsher environmental conditions. With a projected market size of U.S. $600 million in 2020 and a CAGR of 80% to 2020, many new players have entered the field and are introducing new devices at an exceptional rate.

Donor-Like Surface Traps on Two-Dimensional Electron Gas and Current Collapse of AlGaN/GaN HEMTs
The effect of donor-like surface traps on two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) and drain current collapse of AlGaN/GaN high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) has been investigated in detail. The depletion of 2DEG by the donor-like surface states is shown. The drain current collapse is found to be more sensitive to the addition of positive surface charges. Surface trap states with higher ener...
متن کاملReliability Concerns due to Self-Heating Effects in GaN HEMTs
Nitride semiconductors have emerged as a strong candidate for high power, high temperature and high frequency applications in the recent years [13]. The motivation for using this material system is clearly illustrated in Figure 1 below. It is important to emphasize that the strongest feature of the III-V materials is the heterostructure technology it can support quantum well, modulation-doped h...
متن کاملEffect of sputtered SiN passivation on current collapse of AlGaN/GaN HEMTs
The effects of sputtered SiN on current collapse of AlGaN/GaN HEMTs have been studied. The current collapse in terms of dynamic on-state resistance was reduced with increasing SiN deposition and post annealing temperatures due to the reduction of SiN/AlGaN interface trap density. These results indicate that sputtered SiN with deposition temperature at 250 °C is a promising candidate for passiva...
متن کاملCurrent collapse associated with surface states in GaN-based HEMT’s. Theoretical/experimental investigations
The effect of air/AlGaN and GaN/substrate polarization charges on the performances of GaN-based HEMTs have been investigated. We find that surface charges and, with a minor extend, GaN/substrate charges are responsible for the observed premature saturation of the dc output characteristics. Moreover, our work show that the polarization charges and holes trap appear as the source of the drain cur...
متن کامل13.3 Correlation between Luminescence and Current Collapse in AlGaN/GaN HEMTs
Abstract This paper describes experimental results on the correlation between current collapse and electroluminescence observed under high drain bias conditions in AlGaN/GaN HEMTs with high breakdown voltages over 1000 V. The electroluminescence characteristics were categorized into 2 groups: one from the drain edge with a strong white-appearance emission and the other from the whole gate-to-dr...
