The results of our analysis clearly indicate that the Ga N cap layer thickness of an Al N/Ga N heterostructure has influences on the 2DEG electron density and the electron mobility. For the Al N/Ga N heterostructures with a 3-nm Al N barrier layer, the optimized thickness of the Ga N cap layer is around 4 nm and the strained a-axis lattice constant of the Al N barrier layer is less than that of Ga N.展开更多

By using the measured RSand both capacitance–voltage（C–V） and current–voltage（I–V） characteristics for the fabricated device at 300, 350, 400, 450, and 500 K, it is found that the polarization Coulomb field（PCF） scattering exhibits a significant impact on RSat the above-mentioned different temperatures. Furthermore, in the AlGaN/AlN/GaN HFETs, the interaction between the additional positive polarization charges underneath the gate contact and the additional negative polarization charges near the source Ohmic contact, which is related to the PCF scattering, is verified during the variable-temperature study of RS.展开更多
