Analysis of Electron Mobility in Inversion-Mode Al2O3/InxGa1-xAs MOSFETs

چکیده
The electron mobility in Al2O3/InxGa1−xAs (x = 0.53, 0.65, or 0.75) metal–oxide–semiconductor field-effect transistors was analyzed for scattering by oxide charge, as well as interface charge and roughness, and compared with measured transfer characteristics from depletion to inversion. The analysis showed that, under strong inversion, the electron mobility was mainly limited by interface roughness. The extracted interface roughness from the measured data was two to seven times that of the interface between a high-k dielectric and Si, assuming the correlation lengths were comparable. Therefore, to fully benefit from the high bulk mobility of InGaAs, its interface roughness with the gate oxide needs to be further improved.

The High Electron Mobility Transistor (HEMT) is a small geometry hetero-junction device that exploits the high electron mobility in an undoped region to achieve high speed operation. Hetero-junction is used to create a narrow undoped electron well which forms the channel for current flow. The electron mobility in the channel is found to be maximum due to the adequate presence of Indium quantity...
