Abstract:

The advantages of gallium nitride high electron mobility transistors(GaN HEMTs) applied in the field of power electronics and satellite communication are briefly described, and the development status at home and abroad in recent years is reviewed from the perspectives of material growth, device structure and performance improvement. In addition, aiming at the radiation damage faced by GaN HEMT power devices in complex space environment, the degradation laws of the electrical performance of GaN HEMT power devices caused by gamma radiation, neutron radiation, proton radiation and heavy ion radiation are summarized. The internal damage mechanisms of GaN HEMT power devices of total ionizing dose effect, displacement damage effect and single event effect induced by the particle radiation are summarized. Finally, the shortcomings of the current research on radiation effects of GaN HEMT power devices are pointed out, and the future research direction and ideas for radiation hardening of GaN HEMT power devices are prospected.
