Thermal transport through GaN–SiC interfaces from 300 to 600 K

Abstract

Silicon carbide is used as a substrate for high-power GaN devices because of its closely matched lattice spacing with GaN and its high thermal conductivity. In these devices, thermal resistance at the GaN–SiC interface is a bottleneck to heat flow, making this property an important factor in device design. In this letter, we report the first measurements of the thermal boundary conductance of epitaxial GaN grown directly on SiC without a transition layer. We find that the thermal boundary conductance increases from approximately 230 MW/m2K at 300 K to 330 MW/m2K at 600 K. Our measured values are in good qualitative agreement with the diffuse mismatch model for thermal boundary conductance and are in good quantitative agreement when we include a correction factor based on the ratio of Debye temperatures of the two materials. We also report the thermal conductivity of the GaN film, the thermal conductivity of 4H-SiC, and the thermal boundary conductance between Ni and GaN.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • TDTR technique is implemented extensively to study thermal transport mechanisms across interfaces, including surface chemistry effects on interfacial thermal conductance across functionalized liquid-solid and solid-solid interfaces, interfacial thermal conductance between metals and dielectrics, and interface between low dimensional materials and bulk substrates.

    “TDTR technique is therefore implemented extensively to study the thermal transport mechanisms across interfaces, including the effect of surface chemistry on interfacial thermal conductance across functionalized liquid-solid boundary[95,117,118] and solid-solid interfaces[119], interfacial thermal conductance between metals and dielectrics,[120][121][122][123][124] and interface between low dim”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
