We present a review of reliability issues in AlGaN/GaN and AlGaAs/GaAs high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) as well as Heterojunction Bipolar Transistors (HBTs) in the AlGaAs/GaAs materials systems. Because of the complex nature and multi-faceted operation modes of these devices, reliability studies must go beyond the typical Arrhenius accelerated life tests. We review the electric field driven degradation in devices with different gate metallization, device dimensions, electric field mitigation techniques (such as source field plate), and the effect of device fabrication processes for both DC and RF stress conditions. We summarize the degradation mechanisms that limit the lifetime of these devices. A variety of contact and surface degradation mechanisms have been reported, but differ in the two device technologies: For HEMTs, the layers are thin and relatively lightly doped compared to HBT structures and there is a metal Schottky gate that is directly on the semiconductor. By contrast, the HBT relies on pn junctions for current modulation and has only Ohmic contacts. This leads to different degradation mechanisms for the two types of devices. 相似文献

Nano-ridge engineering (NRE) is a novel method to monolithically integrate III–V devices on a 300 mm Si platform. In this work, NRE is applied to InGaP/GaAs heterojunction bipolar transistors (HBTs), enabling hybrid III-V/CMOS technology for RF applications. The NRE HBT stacks were grown by metal-organic vapor-phase epitaxy on 300 mm Si (001) wafers with a double trench-patterned oxide template, in an industrial deposition chamber. Aspect ratio trapping in the narrow bottom part of a trench results in a threading dislocation density below 106∙cm−2 in the device layers in the wide upper part of that trench. NRE is used to create larger area NRs with a flat (001) surface, suitable for HBT device fabrication. Transmission electron microscopy inspection of the HBT stacks revealed restricted twin formation after the InGaP emitter layer contacts the oxide sidewall. Several structures, with varying InGaP growth conditions, were made, to further study this phenomenon. HBT devices—consisting of several nano-ridges in parallel—were processed for DC and RF characterization. A maximum DC gain of 112 was obtained and a cut-off frequency ft of ~17 GHz was achieved. These results show the potential of NRE III–V devices for hybrid III–V/CMOS technology for emerging RF applications. 相似文献
