Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The quality of insulator/GaN interface, which is the key component of GaN-based metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) power devices, was successfully improved by means of interface engineering. Although insertion of ultrathin GaOx layer at the insulator/GaN interface significantly reduces the defect density near the conduction band edge of GaN, the GaOx interlayer was found to be vulnerable to the post annealing in a reducing atmosphere, leading to generation of electrical defects in GaN MOS structures. In this study, we investigated electrical properties of the insulator/GaN interface and achieved high quality and highly reliable GaN MOS devices through thorough design of post annealing conditions and deposition method of insulating films.
