Popis: This work investigates scaling of the GaN channel thickness on top of a carbon-doped GaN buffer (cGaN) grown on 200mm Si substrates. Device performance tradeoffs are analyzed in terms of DC, RF, reliability and thermal behavior. A thinner channel improves DIBL, Ioff,Vth roll-off and degrades fT,fmax , PAE, Pout, charge trapping and thermal conductance characteristics. Transconductance was observed to increase under high saturation drain bias for thin and short channels indicating the lateral device scaling potential of cGaN based HEMTs.
