In the ALL2GaN (Affordable smart GaN IC solutions for greener applications) project, we aim to advance the performance of industrial Gallium Nitride (GaN) devices and system-on-chip technologies operating at 100 V or less. The main component in the fabricated IC’s is p-GaN gate High Electron Mobility Transistor (HEMT) power device. In Fig. 1(a) a X-sectional image of the p-GaN gate architecture of the device is depicted. With an optimization in the device fabrication imec Belgium has significantly reduced forward gate leakage, as shown in Fig. 1(b), comparing a transfer characteristic from the baseline device to the obtained improvement within ALL2GaN. The improvement in the gate characteristic, improves the gate robustness and reliability of the p-GaN gate HEMTs. Furthermore, Fig. 1(c) presents a good OFF-state gate and drain leakage of the fabricated devices. To showcase this technology further, power switches and integrated circuits (ICs) will be packaged and tested as part of the project.
