Journal ArticleDOI
Time- and Field-Dependent Trapping in GaN-Based Enhancement-Mode Transistors With p-Gate
Matteo Meneghini,C. De Santi,Tetsuzo Ueda,Tsuneo Tanaka,Daisuke Ueda,Enrico Zanoni,Gaudenzio Meneghesso +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an extensive analysis of the time and field-dependent trapping processes that occur in GaN-based gate injection transistors exposed to high drain voltage levels is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evidence of Hot-Electron Effects During Hard Switching of AlGaN/GaN HEMTs
Isabella Rossetto,Matteo Meneghini,Alaleh Tajalli,Stefano Dalcanale,C. De Santi,Peter Moens,A. Banerjee,Enrico Zanoni,Gaudenzio Meneghesso +8 more
TL;DR: The results demonstrate that the analyzed devices do not suffer from dynamic ON-resistance problems, and the impact of hard switching on dynamic becomes weaker at high-temperature levels, as the average energy of hot electrons decreases due to the increase scattering with the lattice.
Journal ArticleDOI
Role of defects in the thermal droop of InGaN-based light emitting diodes
C. De Santi,Matteo Meneghini,M. La Grassa,Bastian Galler,Roland Zeisel,Michele Goano,Stefano Dominici,M. Mandurrino,Francesco Bertazzi,Dipika Robidas,Gaudenzio Meneghesso,Enrico Zanoni +11 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the role of various mechanisms including Shockley-Read-Hall recombination, thermionic escape from the quantum well, phonon assisted tunneling, and thermionic trap-assisted tunneling; in addition, to explain the thermal droop, they proposed a closed-form model which is able to accurately fit the experimental data by using values extracted from measurements and simulations and a limited set of fitting parameters.
Journal ArticleDOI
Investigation of the deep level involved in InGaN laser degradation by deep level transient spectroscopy
Matteo Meneghini,C. De Santi,Nicola Trivellin,Kenji Orita,Shinichi Takigawa,Tsuneo Tanaka,Daisuke Ueda,Gaudenzio Meneghesso,Enrico Zanoni +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an extensive analysis of the properties of the deep level responsible for the degradation of InGaN-based laser diodes is presented based on combined optical measurements and Deep-Level Transient Spectroscopy (DLTS) investigation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Degradation of AlGaN/GaN HEMT devices
Gaudenzio Meneghesso,Matteo Meneghini,Antonio Stocco,Davide Bisi,C. De Santi,Isabella Rossetto,A. Zanandrea,Fabiana Rampazzo,Enrico Zanoni +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the degradation mechanisms induced by off-state and on-state stress in AlGaN/GaN HEMTs were investigated and the influence of the reverse voltage as degradation accelerating factor was also provided.
