Abstract
- A systematic analytical investigation of the charge distribution and gate control of the normally-off GaN double-channel MOS-HEMT (DC-MOS-HEMT) is presented in this paper. Compared to conventional GaN MOS-HEMT, the DC-MOS-HEMT features a thin AlN insertion layer (AlN-ISL) below the original two dimensional electron gas (2DEG) channel, thus forming a second channel at the interface between AlN-ISL and the underlying GaN. This paper reveals the impact of the AlN-ISL on the 2DEG distribution and the gate control of the channels. The sensitivity of ${V}_{\text {th}}$ against the recess depth is also analytically studied and is found to be nearly independent of the recess depth as long as the recess is terminated in the upper channel layer. The analytical results are well supported by numerical device simulations, and the physical mechanisms behind these findings are explained along with the analytical investigations.
