This work investigates the total ionizing dose effects from 60Co source on COTS Enhancement-mode (E-Mode) p-GaN HEMT. The E-mode p-GaN devices were irradiated for a cumulative dose of ~ 5.3 kGy in a cylindrical chamber for uniform exposure. The DC characterization of the commercial devices post γ-ray exposure demonstrates a significant reduction in the ON-state current coupled with a positive shift in the device threshold voltage (VTH) and the degradation of the ON-state resistance (RON). Subsequent analysis points toward the creation of deep level traps associated with the nitrogen vacancies that significantly reduce the carrier concentration.

摘要

This work investigates the total ionizing dose effects from 60Co source on COTS Enhancement-mode (E-Mode) p-GaN HEMT. The E-mode p-GaN devices were irradiated for a cumulative dose of ~ 5.3 kGy in a cylindrical chamber for uniform exposure. The DC characterization of the commercial devices post γ-ray exposure demonstrates a significant reduction in the ON-state current coupled with a positive shift in the device threshold voltage (VTH) and the degradation of the ON-state resistance (RON). Subsequent analysis points toward the creation of deep level traps associated with the nitrogen vacancies that significantly reduce the carrier concentration.
