Abstract(in English) A high-electron-mobility transistor (HEMT) structure with a strain-engineered quaternary AlGaInN barrier layer, a thin unintentionally doped (UID) GaN channel and an AlN back barrier was grown on a single-crystal (SC) AlN substrate by metal?organic chemical vapor deposition and subjected to the device fabrication and characterization. The fabricated HEMTs with a gate length of 2 μm exhibited good DC pinch-off characteristics with no large negative resistance. The off-state leakage current was an order of 10 μA even though the UID-GaN channel layer included oxygen donors with a concentration of 1 × 1017 cm-3. The pulsed I?V characteristics for the fabricated HEMTs on the AlN substrate showed much lower drain current decreasing compared to the HEMTs with an intentionally doped GaN back barrier layer fabricated on an SiC substrate. The above results indicate that the combination of the thin UID-GaN channel layer and the AlN back barrier worked effectively in the GaN HEMTs.
