Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Effects of semiconductor processing, such as dry etching and insulating film deposition, on material properties of MOCVD-grown AlGaN films were investigated by PL measurements. In addition, an AlGaN channel MIS diode was fabricated and its interface state was evaluated by CV measurements. There was no large contradiction in interface properties of the AlGaN channel MIS structure in comparison with conventional GaN-channel structures. It has been confirmed that the AlGaN-channel MIS transistor exhibits superior off-state characteristics than those of the conventional GaN-channel HFET.
