It bumped an electrically insulated back self-separation type GaN transistor chip

摘要

A semiconductor device comprising a silicon substrate, a compound semiconductor material, an insulating material between the silicon substrate and the compound semiconductor material, and a top surface comprising means of electrical connection, and passivation material, where the passivation material is silicon nitride, silicon dioxide, or a combination of both. The present invention eliminates the need for a thick electrical insulator between a heat sink and the back surface of a surface mounted device by the inclusion of an AlN seed layer to electrically isolate the silicon substrate of the device. The sidewalls of the device are also electrically isolated from the active area of the device.
