Atomic layer deposition of ZrO2 as gate dielectrics for AlGaN/GaN metal-insulator-semiconductor high electron mobility transistors on silicon
In this Letter, the device performance of AlGaN/GaN metal-insulator-semiconductor high electron mobility transistors (MISHEMTs) on silicon substrate using 10-nm-thick atomic-layer-deposited ZrO2 as gate dielectrics is reported. The ZrO2 AlGaN/GaN MISHEMTs showed improved maximum drain current densit...
