The present subject matter provides a High Mobility Electron Transistor (HEMT) comprising: a substrate, a nucleation layer provided on the substrate, a channel layer, and a buffer layer formed between the nucleation layer and the channel layer. The buffer layer comprises a vertical stack of p-n junctions. Each p-n junction of the vertical stack of p-n junctions comprises an n-type layer provided on a p-type layer. The n-type layer and the p-type layer are parallel to the substrate.

Stacked buffer in transistors

A High Electron Mobility Transistor (HEMT) having a reduced surface field (RESURF) junction is provided. The HEMT includes a source electrode at a first end and a drain electrode at a second end. A gate electrode is provided between the source electrode and the drain electrode. A reduced surface field (RESURF) junction extends from the first end to the second end. The gate electrode is provided above the RESURF junction. A buried channel layer is formed in the RESURF junction on application of a positive voltage at the gate electrode. The RESURF junction includes an n-type Gallium nitride (GaN) layer and a p-type GaN layer. The n-type GaN layer is provided between the p-type GaN layer and the gate electrode.
