Normally-off high electron mobility transistor

摘要

A normally-off high electron mobility transistor (HEMT) includes: a channel layer (120) having a first nitride semiconductor, a channel supply layer (130) on the channel layer, a source electrode (161) and a drain electrode (162) at sides of the channel supply layer, a depletion-forming layer (140) on the channel supply layer, a gate insulating layer (150) on the depletion-forming layer, and a gate electrode (170) on the gate insulation layer. The channel supply layer includes a second nitride semiconductor and is configured to induce a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) in the channel layer. The depletion-forming layer has at least two thicknesses and is configured to form a depletion region in at least a partial region of the 2DEG. The gate electrode contacts the depletion-forming layer.
