Research Progress on Heterogeneous Substrate Integration Technology for Gallium Oxide
As a wide-bandgap semiconductor, β-Ga2O3 holds immense promise for high-power and radio frequency devices. However, its inherently low thermal conductivity and difficulties in p-type doping hinder its device performance and structural design. Heterogeneous integration has emerged as a critical technology to overcome the limitations of single materials and revolutionize device performance. This review summarizes the latest research progress in three heterogeneous integration techniques for β-Ga2O3∶ heteroepitaxy, mechanical exfoliation, and ion-cutting technique. The advantages and disadvantages of different integration techniques in terms of material quality, electrical and thermal properties, and device performance are comparatively analyzed. Additionally, the effects of substrate types, interfacial bonding, and interface layer thickness on heat dissipation and vertical electron transport are discussed. This review also analyzes the current challenges faced byβ-Ga2O3 heterogeneous integration technology and prospects its future development trends, aiming to stimulate domestic research on β-Ga2O3 heterogeneous integrated substrates, promote the development of β-Ga2O3 heterogeneous integrated devices, and accelerate the industrialization of β-Ga2O3 materials and devices.
