Owing to high current, high breakdown and low fabrication cost, it becomes the most attractive high power device. Along with the increasing operating voltage, the limitation of Si substrate becomes a crucial issue for GaN HEMT devices. In this thesis, the Si local removal was adopted to improve the device breakdown voltage, the leakage current and the standard process has been established. Besides, two kinds of devices were designed, the long-distance Si removal (LDSR) device and the short-distance Si removal (SDSR) device, to evaluate the influence of the etched area under the devices. Such a device structure exhibited high breakdown voltage, low leakage current and buffer/substrate trapping caused by the GaN/Si lattice mismatch in comparison with conventional GaN on Si HEMT. The results demonstrated that the Si substrate removal technique effectively eliminate the leakage path between the buffer/substrate interface. In order to overcome the heat issue, the AlN/Cu heat dissipation layer was deposited under active region. The current densities were improved in both kinds of devices which demonstrate that the AlN/Cu layer is beneficial to suppress the devices self-heating effect and shows the feasibility to power devices.
