摘要
Nonequilibrium dc and large-signal ac vertical electron transport in GaN/AlGaN heterostructures is investigated by Monte Carlo simulations. The symmetric two-barrier GaN/AlGaN heterostructures are studied. The results of simulations show that polarization charges have a profound effect on dc and large-signal ac characteristics of vertical electron transport in GaN/AlGaN heterostructures. Under certain composition, geometry and doping profile, the GaN/AlGaN heterostructures may become bipolar, i.e., the inversion layers may originate at heterointerfaces due to strong built-in electric fields, which are induced by polarization charges.
