The effect of different carbon doping techniques on the dynamic behavior of GaN-on-Si buffer was investigated. Intentional doping using a hydrocarbon precursor was compared with the more common autodoping technique. Breakdown and dynamic behavior of processed devices indicate that extrinsic carbon doping delivers better dynamic properties for the same blocking voltage capabilities. Modeling and simulations have revealed that charge transport across the GaN buffer is the main limiting factor during the buffer discharge process.
