Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2018108840A1] The invention relates to a method for producing a device comprising at least one layer made of III-N semiconductor material having crystal-growth surface defects and a substrate, the method comprising: - depositing a barrier layer made of a second III-N material on the surface of a layer of a first III-N semiconductor material, said second III-N material having a larger gap between the valence band and the conduction band than the gap between the valence band and the conduction band of the first III-N material; - depositing at least two layers of different dielectric materials on the surface of said semiconductor material layer made of III-N material and filling said crystal-growth surface defects; - a "CMP" etching operation defining an assembly of materials; and - producing at least one contact at the surface of said assembly of materials. The device can be a transistor. The method can advantageously comprise a plurality of depositions of dielectric materials which can be SiN and SiO2.
