Abstract:
A device structure and method for improving thermal management in highly scaled, high power electronic and optoelectronic devices such as GaN FET and AlGaN/GaN HEMT devices by implementing diamond air bridges into such devices to remove waste heat. The diamond air bridge can be formed from a polycrystalline diamond material layer which can be grown on the surface of a dielectric material layer, on the surface of a III-nitride material, or on the surface of a diamond polycrystalline nucleation layer, and may be optimized to have a high thermal conductivity at the growth interface with the underlying material.
