초록

Gallium Oxide (Ga2O3) is preferred as a material for next generation power semiconductors. The Ga2O3 should solve the disadvantages of low thermal resistance characteristics and difficulty in forming an inversion layer through p-type ion implantation. However, Ga2O3 is difficult to inject p-type ions, so it is being studied in a heterojunction structure using p-type oxides, such as NiO, SnO, and Cu2O. Research the lateral-type FET structure of NiO/Ga2O3 heterojunction under the Gate contact using the Sentaurus TCAD simulation. At this time, the VG-ID and VD-ID curves were identified by the thickness of the Epi-region (channel) and the doping concentration of NiO of 1×1017 to 1×1019 cm-3. The increase in Epi region thickness has a lower threshold voltage from -4.4 V to -9.3 V at ID = 1×10-8 mA/mm, as current does not flow only when the depletion of the PN junction extends to the Epi/Sub interface. As an increase of NiO doping concentration, increases the depletion area in Ga2O3 region and a high electric field distribution on PN junction, and thus the breakdown voltage increases from 512 V to 636 V at ID =1×10-3 A/mm.
