- Descrizione
Descrizione del prodotto
GaN HEMT epitaxial wafer is a multilayer film grown epitaxially on a substrate, which usually includes a nucleation layer, a transition layer, a buffer layer, a channel layer, a barrier layer, a cap layer, and a passivation layer from bottom to top. The nucleation layer, like AlGaN or AlN, is used to prevent the substrate material from diffusing into the GaN epitaxial layer. The transition layer may contain hierarchical AlGaN, AlN/GaN superlattice or multilayer AlN to balance the stress between the GaN and the substrate. The higher the Al content in the barrier layer of AlGaN, the higher the 2DEG concentration at the heterojunction. Meanwhile, the lower the threshold voltage of the device, and the higher the current capacity. As the Al ratio increasing, the degree of heterogeneous crystal lattice mismatch will be higher, resulting in a decrease in gallium nitride HEMT electron mobility and a decrease in current capacity.
The High Electron Mobility Transistor (HEMT) is developed based on GaN with unique heterostructure and two-dimensional electron gas. The GaN HEMT advantages include high breakdown strength, low on-resistance and faster The switching speed, which is very suitable for medium and low voltage and medium and small power systems, such as travel adapters, wireless chargers, AC-DC converters, smart home appliances, etc. The epitaxial wafer with HEMT structure is more attractive currently for high-frequency converters, in which GaN HEMT breakdown voltage is 600~650 V. With the rapid development of gallium nitride HEMT epi technology, the price of GaN HEMT devices will be competitive, which can gain large GaN HEMT market for GaN HEMT manufacturers. Moreover, due to the gallium nitride HEMT reliability, it can be widely used in industrial fields, such as photovoltaic inverters, energy storage systems, and electric vehicles.

3. Explanation of AlGaN/Al/GaN HEMTs:
HEMT nitruro vengono intensamente sviluppati per elettronica ad alta potenza in applicazioni amplificazione e commutazione di potenza ad alta frequenza. Spesso elevate prestazioni in esercizio DC viene perso quando il HEMT è acceso - per esempio, il contro corrente comprime quando il segnale di gate è pulsata. Si pensa che tali effetti sono riportate intrappolamento di cariche che maschera l'effetto del cancello sul flusso di corrente. Field-piastre sugli elettrodi di sorgente e porta sono stati utilizzati per manipolare il campo elettrico nel dispositivo, mitigare tali fenomeni corrente-collasso.
