Abstract
Section titled āAbstractāMore than 1600V breakdown voltages have been obtained in hydrogen terminated (C-H) diamond planar p-channel MOSFETs with gate-drain distance of 16-22 μm. The drain current density exceeds 100mA/mm in the FETs. The blocking voltage and drain current characteristics are comparable to those of n-channel AlGaN/GaN FETs and planar SiC MOSFETs in a similar device size. Atomic layer deposited Al <sub xmlns:mml=āhttp://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathMLā xmlns:xlink=āhttp://www.w3.org/1999/xlinkā>2</sub> O <sub xmlns:mml=āhttp://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathMLā xmlns:xlink=āhttp://www.w3.org/1999/xlinkā>3</sub> works as gate insulator and passivation layer. It also induces the 2 dimensional hole gas ubiquitously on C-H diamond surface not only in planar, but in a trench gate structure. The first diamond vertical MOSFET has also operated using the trench structure.
