Abstract
III-nitride based high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs), such as AlGaN/GaN HEMTs on Silicon substrates, with improved heat dissipation are described herein. A semiconductor device having improved heat dissipation may include a substrate having a top surface and a bottom surface, a nucleation layer on the top surface of the substrate, a transition layer on the nucleation layer, a buffer layer on the transition layer, a barrier layer on the buffer layer, and a metal layer filling a via hole that extends from the bottom surface of the substrate to a bottom surface of the transition layer.
