项目摘要

The objective of the proposed work is to design and demonstrate high frequency Beta-Gallium Oxide based transistors. Silicon based electronics is ubiquitous and provides excellent performance for many applications, but there still remain certain critical technology areas where other semiconductor materials, particularly wide band gap semiconductors, have properties that make them superior to silicon. Gallium Oxide is one such semiconductor whose intrinsic properties make it potentially superior for applications such as high frequency communications. However, to harness these properties for better performance, new device engineering (design and fabrication) techniques need to be developed. The proposed research project focuses on engineering of transistors based on this material that could enable high frequency electronics in a range that is higher than the typical wireless communication technology used currently. With the proliferation of networked intelligent devices and sensors throughout our environment, the need for high data rate communication is increasing at an unprecedented rate. Therefore, there is a significant need for high power density mm-wave amplifiers with high gain and efficiency. The development of Gallium Oxide-based high power mm-wave transistors proposed here could enable a new generation of such high data rate systems based on mm-wave and THz communications. A new course focused on wide band gap semiconductor devices will also be developed, whose course content will be offered free online. The main goal of this project is to determine the frequency and power limits for Gallium Oxide transistors in the mm-wave frequency range, and to design and demonstrate transistors with state-of-art device performance. While Gallium Oxide has higher breakdown field than other wide band gap semiconductors such as Gallium Nitride and Silicon Carbide, it has lower carrier mobility. In addition, the high field transport characteristics are relatively unknown. This project will lead to a vertically integrated investigation of the design, growth, fabrication, and characterization of highly scaled Gallium Oxide transistors. The project will lead to a better understanding of critical aspects of device engineering for Gallium Oxide devices, including epitaxial designs such as delta-doped transistors and heterostructures to enable scaled transistors with short gate lengths, understanding of low and high field electron transport in such scaled channels, control of dispersion caused by surface as well as buffer traps, and field management techniques (such as field plates and passivation) necessary to control field distributions in these transistors. The proposed project will therefore lay the foundation for a new generation of scaled transistors based on Gallium Oxide, and the scientific findings will impact not just high frequency transistors, but also other technologies such as power switching transistors.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
拟议工作的目的是设计和演示高频β-镓氧化物晶体管。硅基电子器件无处不在,并为许多应用提供了优异的性能,但仍存在某些关键技术领域,其中其他半导体材料,特别是宽带隙半导体,具有使其上级硅的特性。氧化镓就是这样一种半导体,其固有特性使其在高频通信等应用中具有潜在的上级。然而,为了利用这些特性获得更好的性能,需要开发新的器件工程(设计和制造)技术。拟议的研究项目侧重于基于这种材料的晶体管工程,可以使高频电子产品的范围高于目前使用的典型无线通信技术。随着网络智能设备和传感器在我们环境中的扩散,对高数据速率通信的需求正以前所未有的速度增长。因此,非常需要具有高增益和效率的高功率密度毫米波放大器。本文提出的基于氧化镓的高功率毫米波晶体管的开发可以实现基于毫米波和太赫兹通信的新一代高数据速率系统。还将开发一门新的课程,重点是宽带隙半导体器件,其课程内容将在网上免费提供。该项目的主要目标是确定毫米波频率范围内氧化镓晶体管的频率和功率限制,并设计和演示具有最先进器件性能的晶体管。虽然氧化镓具有比其他宽带隙半导体(例如氮化镓和碳化硅)更高的击穿场,但其具有较低的载流子迁移率。此外,高场输运特性相对未知。这个项目将导致一个高度规模化的氧化镓晶体管的设计,生长,制造和表征的垂直整合调查。该项目将导致更好地了解氧化镓器件的器件工程的关键方面,包括外延设计,如三角掺杂晶体管和异质结构,使缩放晶体管具有短栅极长度,了解这种缩放通道中的低场和高场电子传输,控制由表面引起的分散以及缓冲陷阱,以及控制这些晶体管中的场分布所必需的场管理技术(例如场板和钝化)。因此,该项目将为基于氧化镓的新一代可缩放晶体管奠定基础,其科学发现不仅将影响高频晶体管,还将影响其他技术,如功率开关晶体管。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命,并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估,被认为值得支持。
