In this paper, a dynamic operational linear regulator (DOLR) based on a GaN high-electron-mobility transistor (HEMT) and wide-bandwidth operational amplifier was developed and implemented. The driving current could be regulated and controlled by the DOLR for 632 nm laser diodes. The constant-current mode for the continuous-wave laser and the pulse-width modulation (PWM) mode for the short-pulsed laser were realizable using this DOLR. This study focused on the rising-edge time change on the laser driving current when the DOLR was operated under the high-frequency PWM mode, because the parasitic components on the GaN HEMT, laser diodes, printed circuit board, and power wires could influence the current’s dynamic behavior. Therefore, the equivalent circuit models of the laser diode and GaN HEMT were applied to establish a DOLR simulation circuit in order to observe the rising-edge time change on the laser driving current. A DOLR prototype was achieved, and so experimental waveform measurements could be implemented to verify the DOLR simulation and operation.

An analytical model for field-plate (FP) optimization in high electron mobility transistor (HEMT) is reported. With the potential distribution in device’s channel being modeled in terms of physical parameters, the two critical parameters of FP, i.e., the insulator thickness and the FP length, are optimized respectively. Using the model, the optimization of the FP structure in a typical undoped AlGaN/GaN HEMT is described in detail.

ABSTRACTThe paper reports on the fabrication of electrical isolation for planar AlGaN/GaN high electron mobility transistor using Al double-implantation. The implantation was performed using Al+ ions with energies of 800 keV and 300 keV with doses of 1.5×1013 ion/cm2 and 1×1013 ion/cm2, respectively. Electrical measurements have shown that after implantation the sheet resistance was 1.8×1011 Ω/□ and increased to 1.17×1014 Ω/□ and 3.29×1012 Ω/□ after annealing at 400°C and 600°C respectively. Annealing at 800°C decreased the sheet resistance to 1.38×108 Ω/□. Characterization by XRD, Raman and photoluminescence spectroscopy give evidence that implantation damages the crystal lattice, yielding insulating properties. It has been demonstrated that the isolation is stable up to 600°C.

The objective of this paper is to evaluate the impact of the parasitic capacitor to the Gallium-Nitride (GaN) based high-electron-mobility transistor (HEMT). Because of the high switching frequency operation, the parasitic inductor has caught a lot of attention when the GaN HEMT is applied in the high power applications. However, the impact of parasitic capacitor to the GaN HEMT is not discussed in literatures. A prototype circuit is built and tested to evaluate the impacts of parasitic capacitor to the GaN HEMT performance. The results show that the parasitic capacitor can induce voltage spike and damage the GaN HEMT.

An enhancement-mode gallium-nitride high-electron-mobility transistor (E-mode GaN HEMT) operated at high frequency is highly prone to current spikes (di/dt) and voltage spikes (dv/dt) in the parasitic inductor of its circuit, resulting in damage to the power switch. To highlight the phenomena of di/dt and dv/dt, this study connected the drain, source, and gate terminals in series with inductors (LD, LS, and LG, respectively). The objective was to explore the effects of di/dt and dv/dt phenomena and operating frequency (fS) on drain-to-source voltage (Vds), drain-to-source current (Ids), and gate-to-source voltage (Vgs). The experimental method comprised two projects: (1) establishment of a measurement system to assess the change of electrical characteristics of the E-mode GaN HEMT and (2) change of the fS and the inductances (i.e., LD, LS, and LG) in the circuit to measure the changes in Vds, Ids, and Vgs, thus summarizing the experimental results. According to the experimental results on electrical characteristics, a gate driver circuit may be designed to drive and protect the E-mode GaN HEMT while being actually applied to a 120-W synchronous buck converter with an output voltage of 12 V and an output current of 10 A.

We report on the effect of strain induced polarization fields in AlGaN/GaN heterostructures due to the incorporation of Si dopant ions in the lattice. By Si-doping (Al)GaN, a contraction of the wurtzite unit cell can occur leading to strain in doped AlGaN/GaN heterostructures such as high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs). In a typical modulation doped AlGaN/GaN HEMT structure, the Si-doped AlGaN supply layer is separated from the two-dimensional electron gas channel by an undoped AlGaN spacer layer. This dopant-induced strain, which is tensile, can create an additional source of charge at the AlGaN:Si/AlGaN interface. The magnitude of this strain increases as the Si doping concentration increases and the AlN mole fraction in the AlGaN decreases. Consideration of this strain should be given in AlGaN/GaN HEMT structure design.
