摘要
This paper presents an approach in fabricating normally off AlGaN/GaN high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs). The fabrication technique was based on the carbon-doped GaN epitaxy layers on silicon substrate and the nano rod structure of the gate region in AlGaN/GaN HEMTs. Using this method, the threshold voltage of AlGaN/GaN HEMTs can be shifted from -2 V in a conventional depletion-mode (D-mode) AlGaN/GaN HEMT to 2 V in an enhancement-mode (E-mode) AlGaN/GaN HEMT.
