Enhancement-mode(E-mode) MOSFET was fabricated based on β-Ga_(2)O_(3) film grown by atomic layer deposition technology, and the β-Ga_(2)O_(3) inverter was further monolithically integrated on this basis. The β-Ga_(2)O_(3) n MOSFET exhibits excellent electrical characteristics with an on/off current ratio reaching 10^(5). The logic inverter shows outstanding voltage inversion characteristics under low-frequency from 1 to 400 Hz operation. As the frequency continues to increase to 10 K, the reverse characteristic becomes worse due to parasitic capacitance induced by processes, and the difference between the highest and lowest values of VOUT has an exponential decay relationship with the frequency. This paper provides the practice for the development of β-Ga_(2)O_(3)-based circuits.展开更多
