Electrothermal and trapping effects characterisation of AlGaN/GaN HEMTs
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a systematic analysis of the two kinds of traps encountered in AlGaN/GaN HEMTs. It is shown that passivation is very efficient to minimize the surface trap effects but has little effect on the buffer traps. Those ones can only be eliminated through the development of high purity substrates. Moreover thermal I-V and microwave behaviour of such transmissions is investigated through the use of a pulse-measurement system.

There is an increasing need for more accurate models taking into account the nonlinearities and memory effects of microwave transistors. The memory effects are especially important for transistor technologies suffering from relatively large low frequency dispersion, such as GaN baed HEMTs. Nonlinear measurement systems are today available off-the-shelf, but the use of them is still limited. It ...
