Title:
HIGH ELECTRON MOBILITY TRANSISTOR(HEMT)
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2012156538
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:

To improve high frequency characteristics.

A group III nitride-based high electron mobility transistor (HEMT) 20 includes a GaN buffer layer 26, and an AlyGa1-yN(y=1 or ≒1) layer 28 exists on the GaN buffer layer 26. An AlxGa1-xN(0≤x≤0.5) barrier layer 30 exists on the AlyGa1-yN layer 28 on the reverse side of the GaN buffer layer 26, and the Al concentration of the layer 28 is higher than that of the barrier layer 30. A 2DEG 38 is formed on the interface of the GaN buffer layer 26 and the AlyGa1-yN layer 28. On the barrier layer 30, source, drain and gate contacts 32, 34, 36 are formed. On the reverse side of the AlyGa1-yN layer 28, a nucleation layer 24 may be included between the GaN buffer layer 26 and the substrate 22, including a substrate 22 contiguous to the buffer layer 26.
