Evaluation of Low-Temperature Saturation Velocity in β -(Al?Ga???)?O?/Ga?O? Modulation-Doped Field-Effect Transistors
摘要： We report on the high-field transport characteristics and saturation velocity in a modulation-doped β-(AlxGa1?x)2O3/Ga2O3 heterostructure. The formation of a 2-D electron gas (2DEG) in the modulation-doped structure was confirmed from the Hall measurements, and the 2DEG channel mobility increased from 143 cm2/V·s at room temperature to 1520 cm2/V·s at 50 K. The high electron mobility at 50 K made it feasible to achieve velocity saturation inside the channel. The saturation velocity was estimated based on both pulsed current–voltage measurements and small-signal radio frequency (RF) measurements. The measured velocity–field profile suggested a saturation velocity above 1.1 × 107 cm/s at 50 K. The small-signal RF characteristics were measured for the fabricated modulation-doped field-effect transistors with a Pt-based Schottky contact. The current gain cutoff frequency (ft) and maximum oscillation frequency (fmax) showed significant increases from 4.0/11.8 GHz at room temperature to 17.4/40.8 GHz at 50 K for the device with gate length of LG = 0.61 μm. The analysis of the low temperature ft based on device simulations indicated a peak velocity of 1.2 × 107 cm/s. The three-terminal off-state breakdown measurement further suggested an average breakdown field of 3.22 MV/cm. The high saturation velocity and high breakdown field in β-Ga2O3 make it a promising candidate for high-power and high-frequency device applications.

High-performance black phosphorus field-effect transistors with long-term air-stability
摘要： Two-dimensional layered materials (2DLMs) are of considerable interest for high-performance electronic devices for their unique electronic properties and atomically thin geometry. However, the atomically thin geometry makes their electronic properties highly susceptible to the environment changes. In particular, some 2DLMs (e.g., black phosphorus (BP) and SnSe2) are unstable and could rapidly degrade over time when exposed to ambient conditions. Therefore, the development of proper passivation schemes that can preserve the intrinsic properties and enhance their lifetime represents a key challenge for these atomically thin electronic materials. Herein we introduce a simple, non-disruptive and scalable van der Waals passivation approach by using organic thin films to simultaneously improve the performance and air stability of BP field-effect transistors (FETs). We show that dioctylbenzothienobenzothiophene (C8-BTBT) thin films can be readily deposited on BP via van der Waals epitaxy approach to protect BP against oxidation in ambient conditions over 20 days. Importantly, the non-covalent van der Waals interface between C8-BTBT and BP effectively preserves the intrinsic properties of BP, allowing us to demonstrate high-performance BP FETs with a record-high current density of 920 μA/um, hole drift velocity over 1 ⅹ 107 cm/s, and on/off ratio of 104~107 at room temperature. This approach is generally applicable to other unstable two-dimensional (2D) materials, defining a unique pathway to modulate their electronic properties and realize high-performance devices through hybrid heterojunctions.
