Progress of power field effect transistor based on ultra-wide bandgap Ga2O3semiconductor material

As a promising ultra-wide bandgap semiconductor, gallium oxide (Ga2O3) has attracted increasing attention in recent years. The high theoretical breakdown electrical field (8 MV/cm), ultra-wide bandgap (~ 4.8 eV) and large Baliga’s figure of merit (BFOM) of Ga2O3 make it a potential candidate material for next generation high-power electronics, including diode and field effect transistor (FET). In this paper, we introduce the basic physical properties of Ga2O3 single crystal, and review the recent research process of Ga2O3 based field effect transistors. Furthermore, various structures of FETs have been summarized and compared, and the potential of Ga2O3 is preliminary revealed. Finally, the prospect of the Ga2O3 based FET for power electronics application is analyzed.
