Abstract

ZnO material exhibits superior properties required for several electronic applications. It has been noticed that the different temperature-based models of conventional AlGaN/GaN HEMTs have been widely studied; however, physics-based analytical models including the effect of temperature for MgZnO/ZnO HEMT are not sufficiently explored much as of now in the literature. Accordingly, in this brief, the different transport properties and Fermi energy levels of AlGaN/GaN and MgZnO/ZnO HEMT are studied with respect to different temperatures. Further, we have also comparatively reviewed the important transport properties including 2DEG density, internal electric field, and optical gain of AlGaN/GaN and MgZnO/ZnO quantum well structures having identical dimensions.
