A gallium nitride (GaN) semiconductor vertical field-effect transistor (VFET) has several attractive advantages such as high power density capability and small device size. Currently, some of the main issues hindering its development include the realization of normally off operation and the improvement of high breakdown voltage (BV) characteristics. In this work, a trenched-gate scheme is employed to realize the normally off VFET. Meanwhile, an additional back current blocking layer (BCBL) is proposed and inserted into the GaN normally off VFET to improve the device performance. The electrical characteristics of the proposed device (called BCBL-VFET) are investigated systematically and the structural parameters are optimized through theoretical calculations and TCAD simulations. We demonstrate that the BCBL-VFET exhibits a normally off operation with a large positive threshold voltage of 3.5 V and an obviously increased BV of 1800 V owing to the uniform electric field distribution achieved around the gate region. However, the device only shows a small degradation of on-resistance (RON). The proposed scheme provides a useful reference for engineers in device fabrication work and will be promising for the applications of power electronics.
