Mg-annealed anode contacts to reduce the on-resistance of GaN pn diodes formed via Mg implantation and ultra-high pressure annealing
Abstrak
Drive-in diffusion of Mg implanted into GaN during ultra-high pressure annealing leads to low surface acceptor concentrations. This favors p-type Schottky contact formation, which severely increases the on-state resistance of Mg-implanted GaN pn diodes (PNDs). This work aims to reduce the resistance of contacts to Mg-implanted p-GaN by incorporating Mg deposition and annealing into the contact stack, achieving a rectification ratio (RR) over 10 ^12 , a current density above 1 kA cm ^−2 and a record-low differential specific on-resistance ( R _ON ) of 0.65 mΩ.cm ^2 in Mg-implanted PNDs, offering a potential solution for improving the performance and manufacturability of vertical GaN devices that require contacts to Mg-implanted p-GaN.
