Low turn-on voltage rectifier using p-GaN gate AlGaN/GaN high electron mobility transistor for energy harvesting applications

Abstract: We have demonstrated an extremely low voltage rectifier by using p-GaN gate AlGaN/GaN high electron mobility transistors. In contrast to conventional GaN rectifiers, the turn-on voltage and on-state current can be decoupled, resulting in low turn-on voltage of 0.05 V and high on-state current achieved simultaneously with p-GaN designs. Furthermore, the role of p-GaN layer on current–voltage characteristics of p-GaN gated anode diode was investigated, indicating the p-GaN layer is the source of hole current. Co… Show more

“…In the low voltage region at higher than the on-voltage of the 2DEG channel, the forward current is dominated by 2DEG. 17,18) With further increase of voltage, the pn diode between anode and cathode of the p-GaN region acts as a main current path, and enhances the forward current significantly. Therefore, the p-GaN gated anode diodes with the SJ structure are expected to realize the high V B , as well as the low R on and the high forward current.…”

“…The p-GaN gated anode diode is the structure with the anode, connecting the p-GaN gate electrode and the one side of the channel electrode, and the other side of the channel electrode as the cathode. 17,18) Inside the p-GaN region, the channel electrode of the anode was formed on the AlGaN layer, where the p-GaN layer was removed. And, the channel electrode is connected to the p-GaN gate electrode by Au/Ti.…”
