Abstract
In this work, a new design of a GaN current aperture vertical electron transistor (CAVET) by stepped p-Gan buried layers with modulated doping concentration is proposed. During the Off state of the operation, the p-GaN buried layers are reverse biased which results in a fully depleted drift layer and consequently a significant improvement of breakdown voltage. By adjusting the length and the thickness of the buried layers, it’s possible to make a uniform electric field through the device. Moreover, adjusting the doping concentrations in the buried layers can optimize the electric field distribution in the drift layer. This approach proposes a new vertical GaN FET which has higher breakdown voltage and lower resistance compared to their current counterpart devices.
