Abstract

The present invention discloses a manufacturing method of an Ohmic contact structure of a nitride semiconductor device. The method comprises the steps of: forming a metal stacked structure including an Al layer on a GaN substrate, performing low-temperature oxidation in an oxygen atmosphere to form an aluminum oxide barrier layer at the side wall of the Al layer, and forming Ohmic contact of the metal stacked structure and the GaN substrate through high-temperature alloy. The low-temperature oxidation processing is performed prior to Ohmic contact alloy to allow the outer side of the Ohmic metal to be oxidized to aluminum oxide so as to reduce the interface pollution or improve an interface state; and moreover, the method increases low-temperature oxidation in a traditional GaN device Ohmic metal manufacturing process, is simple in process with no need for introducing other substances and other materials, and is high in practicability and good in effect.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a semiconductor manufacturing process, in particular to an ohmic contact structure of a nitride semiconductor device and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique [0002] The third-generation semiconductor material GaN has a large band gap (3.4eV), high electron saturation rate (2×10 7 cm / s), high breakdown electric field (1×10 10 ~3×10 10 V / cm), high thermal conductivity, corrosion resistance and radiation resistance have become current research hotspots and have broad application prospects. In particular, AlGaN / GaN heterojunction HEMTs (High electronmobility transistors) have the advantages of high frequency, high power density and high operating temperature, and are the development direction of solid-state microwave power devices and power electronic devices. [0003] The ohmic contact process is one of the key technologies for making high-performance GaN-based devices, which directly affects the performance o...
