Patent number: 5741360Abstract: In a method of selectively growing a crystal of a compound semiconductor layer which is composed of gallium and arsenic, a selective growth is selectively carried out on a substrate by using a combination of metallic gallium and a reactive gas, such as trisdimethylminoarsine, which includes a metallic compound of arsenic specified by at least one amine. The combination may includes organometallic gallium, such as trimethylgallium, triethylgallium instead of the metallic gallium. Such a combination serves to selectively deposit the compound semiconductor layer only on an exposed portion uncovered with a mask. Any other compound semiconductor layer may be selectively deposited on the exposed portion. The exposed portion may be composed of GaAs, AlGaAs, or InGaAs.Type: GrantFiled: August 11, 1995Date of Patent: April 21, 1998Assignee: Optoelectronics Technology Research CorporationInventors: Shigeo Goto, Yasuhiko Nomura, Yoshitaka Morishita, Seikoh Yoshida, Masahiro Sasaki

Patent number: 5381027Abstract: This invention discloses a heterojunction type field effect transistor such as 2DEG-FET and a heterojunction type bipolar transistor such as 2DEG-HBT. The former is fabricated by applying to the formation of its source and drain regions a technique which causes the disorder of the heterojunction by intoduction of an impurity such as by ion implantation or a technique which causes the disorder of the heterojunction by forming a film made of at least one kind of material selected from insulators, metals and semiconductors which have a different linear coefficient of thermal expansion from that of the material of a semiconductor substrate on the heterojunction semiconductor region which is to be disordered. The latter is fabricated by applying either of the techniques described above to a base ohmic contact region. These semiconductor devices can reduce the source-gate resistance and the parasitic base resistance.Type: GrantFiled: October 12, 1993Date of Patent: January 10, 1995Assignee: Hitachi, Ltd.Inventors: Toshiyuki Usagawa, Kenji Hiruma, Masahiko Kawata, Shigeo Goto, Katsuhiko Mitani, Masao Yamane, Susumu Takahashi, Tomonori Tanoue, Yoshinori Imamura

Patent number: 5373191Abstract: Source and drain electrode metals of a field effect transistor having a recessed gate electrode metal are directly connected to a high impurity concentration semiconductor layer which faces the gate electrode metal through an insulator film which defines the side wall of the recess. The source and drain electrode metals may be disposed so as to face the gate electrode metal through the side insulator film. With this arrangement, it is possible to lower the parasitic resistance between the gate electrode and another electrode of the field effect transistor, to lower the contact resistance between a semiconductor layer and the source and drain electrodes, to reduce the capacitance of the recess gate electrode and to increase the source-gate breakdown voltage, advantageously. The above-described arrangement is particularly suitable for a transistor employing a compound semiconductor, and can also be applied to semiconductor devices other than field effect transistors.Type: GrantFiled: December 30, 1992Date of Patent: December 13, 1994Assignee: Hitachi Ltd.Inventors: Toshiyuki Usagawa, Yoshinori Imamura, Hidekazu Okuhira, Shigeo Goto, Masayoshi Kobayashi, Shinichiro Takatani

Patent number: 5351128Abstract: A field-effect transistor or a bipolar transistor may be provided in which the contact resistance between a channel layer or base layer and a contact layer are reduced. For example, an InGaAs buffer layer may be formed on the substrate side of an InGaAs channel layer of a field-effect transistor and by the bypassing effect that carriers pass through this InGaAs buffer layer, the InGaAs channel layer comes in contact with the contact layer with a low resistance. The contact resistance between the InGaAs channel layer and the contact layer can be reduced to 10 ohm per a width of 10.mu.m, and as a result, the value of transconductance factor K of a field-effect transistor can be increased in 14 mA/V.sup.2 per a width of 10.mu.m.Type: GrantFiled: July 27, 1992Date of Patent: September 27, 1994Assignee: Hitachi, Ltd.Inventors: Shigeo Goto, Hidetoshi Matsumoto, Masamitsu Yazawa, Yasunari Umemoto, Yoko Uchida, Kenji Hiruma

Patent number: 5025751Abstract: A solid film forming apparatus, e.g., an MO-MBE (Metal-Organic Molecular Beam Epitaxy) apparatus, wherein evacuatable containers isolated from a growth chamber by a switching device and connected to raw material gas introduction pipings are provided between the growth chamber for a solid film, e.g., a compound semiconductor, and raw material gas introduction pipings. Growth of the solid film is controlled by opening and closing the switching device and evacuating the container at least while the switching device is closed during the growth of the solid film. An undesired influence on the growing film due to residual gas in the containers which are not used for growth can be prevented and, hence, interception and introduction of the raw material gas into the growth chamber can be performed with remarkably high controllability, and films of superior abruptness of the interface between films, e.g., the heterojunction of the compound semiconductor, can be obtained.Type: GrantFiled: June 14, 1989Date of Patent: June 25, 1991Assignee: Hitachi, Ltd.Inventors: Shinichiro Takatani, Shigeo Goto, Masahiko Kawata, Kenji Hiruma

Patent number: 4914488Abstract: A compound semiconductor structure in the form of a superlattice film with effectively graded average composition, comprising an alternating lamination of two kinds of layers of different composition to form pairs of layers, the ratio of the thickness of one layer to the thickness of the other in said pairs of layers being gradually varied in the direction of thickness throughout successive pairs, thereby the average composition being effectively graded throughout the pairs. In a hetero-junction field effect transistor, the layer of effectively graded composition is used between a semiconductor layer making low resistance contact with a current-supplying electrode and a semiconductor layer where a two dimensional channel is to be formed. In case of AlGaAs/GaAs system, the Al composition is varied. When the superlattice film is heat-treated, Al in the AlGaAs layer diffuses into the GaAs layer, yielding a film with actually smoothly graded Al mole fraction.Type: GrantFiled: May 2, 1988Date of Patent: April 3, 1990Assignee: Hitachi, Ltd.Inventors: Masao Yamane, Tomoyoshi Mishima, Shigeo Goto, Susumu Takahashi, Makoto Morioka
