摘要
Room temperature electron mobility of 1170 cm(2)/V s is obtained in an undoped, lattice-matched, Al0.82In0.18N/GaN field-effect transistor heterostructure, while keeping a high (2.6 +/- 0.3)x10(13) cm(-2) electron gas density intrinsic to the Al0.82In0.18N/GaN material system. This results in a two-dimensional sheet resistance of 210 Omega/square. The high mobility of these layers, grown by metal-organic vapor phase epitaxy on sapphire substrate, is obtained thanks to the insertion of an optimized AlN interlayer, reducing the alloy related interface roughness scattering.
