Threshold voltage modeling of GaN based normally-off tri-gate transistor

TLDR

Abstract
In this paper, a behavioral model of threshold voltage for normally-off (enhancement mode) AlGaN/GaN based tri-gate HEMT is proposed. AlGaN/GaN based tri-gate HEMT devices have additional sidewall gates and show threshold voltage variation with decreasing device width. The proposed model captures strain relaxation with reduction in device width, which is one of the primary reason for change in V th in AlGaN/GaN tri-gate devices. Model shows excellent agreement with state-of-the-art experimental and simulation data.
