Popis: In this work, we investigate the impact of GaN channel traps on the performance of AlN/GaN/AlGaN HEMT device grown on SiC substrate using two-dimensional TCAD physics based simulations. Traps specifications used here are acquired from the data reported in the literature. The simulated DC characteristics are compared with experimental measurements for validation, providing an appropriate feedback for future technological improvements. Furthermore using the Low Frequency (LF) AC simulations results, we demonstrate that the LF admittance dispersion measurement is an effective tool for identifying the traps in the device structure.
