Abstract

High quality SiO 2 layers were successfully deposited onto AlGaN by photo-chemical vapor deposition (photo-CVD) using D 2 lamp as the excitation source at room temperature. The resulting interface state density was only 8.86 × 10 11 cm -2 eV -1. With a 2 μm gate, it was found that maximum drain-source current, maximum transconductance (g m,max) and gate voltage swing (GVS) of the fabricated nitride-based metal-oxide-semiconductor heterostructure field effect transistors (MOS-HFETs) were 225 mA/mm, 33 mS/mm and 6.5 V, respectively. Compared with metal-semiconductor HFETs (MES-HFETs), it was found that noise power density of MOS-HFETs was lower and presented pure 1/f noise with smaller trapping effects.
