Abstract

Sn-doped gallium oxide (Ga₂O₃) wrap-gate fin-array field-effect transistors (finFETs) were formed by top-down BCl₃ plasma etching on a native semi-insulating Mg-doped (100) β-Ga₂O₃ substrate. The fin channels have a triangular cross-section and are approximately 300 nm wide and 200 nm tall. FinFETs, with 20 nm Al₂O₃ gate dielectric and ∼2 μm wrap-gate, demonstrate normally-off operation with a threshold voltage between 0 and +1 V during high-voltage operation. The I_ON/I_OFF ratio is greater than 10⁵ and is mainly limited by high on-resistance that can be significantly improved. At V_G = 0, a finFET with 21 μm gate-drain spacing achieved a three-terminal breakdown voltage exceeding 600 V without a field-plate.
