Physical Modeling of Threshold Voltage Instability in GaN High‐Electron‐Mobility Transistors
Ling‐Feng Mao
Abstract:The transient heat conduction equation for the 2D electron gas layer in GaN high‐electron‐mobility transistors is developed. The Schottky barrier height and the conduction band offset seen by electrons in the 2D electron gas layer will be reduced due to self‐heating in the 2D electron gas of GaN high‐electron‐mobility transistors via quantum coupling. Such a reduction will lead to a shift in the threshold voltage. To address this issue, an analytical physical model of self‐heating in the 2D electron gas of a G… Show more
