CASCODE STRUCTURES WITH GaN CAP LAYERS

摘要

A transistor device including a cap layer is described. One embodiment of such a device includes cap layer between a gate and a semiconductor layer. In one embodiment, the thickness of the cap layer is between 5 nm and 100 nm. In another embodiment, the cap layer can be doped, such as delta-doped or doped in a region remote from the semiconductor layer. Devices according to the present invention can show capacitances which are less drain bias dependent, resulting in improved linearity.
