Effect of the Si-doped In0.49Ga0.51P barrier layer on the device performance of In0.4Ga0.6As MOSFETs grown on semi-insulating GaAs substrates

In0.4Ga0.6As channel metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs) with and without an Si-doped In0.49Ga0.51P barrier layer grown on semi-insulating GaAs substrates have been investigated for the first time. Compared with the In0.4Ga0.6As MOSFETs without an In0.49Ga0.51P barrier layer...

Summary:In0.4Ga0.6As channel metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs) with and without an Si-doped In0.49Ga0.51P barrier layer grown on semi-insulating GaAs substrates have been investigated for the first time. Compared with the In0.4Ga0.6As MOSFETs without an In0.49Ga0.51P barrier layer, In0.4Ga0.6As MOSFETs with an In0.49Ga0.51P barrier layer show higher drive current, higher transconductance, lower gate leakage current, lower subthreshold swing, and higher effective channel mobility. These In0.4Ga0.6As MOSFETs (gate length 2 μm) with an In0.49Ga0.51P barrier layer exhibit a high drive current of 117 mA/mm, a high transconductance of 71.9 mS/mm, and a maximum effective channel mobility of 1266 cm2/(V·s).
