Abstract
A high electron mobility transistor includes a III-V compound layer, a nitride layer, a source electrode, a drain electrode, a gate electrode, a surface plasma treatment region, and at least one moat. The nitride layer is disposed on the III-V compound layer. The source and the drain electrodes are disposed above the III-V compound layer. The gate electrode is disposed above the nitride layer. The moat is at least partially disposed in the nitride layer and between the source and the drain electrodes. The surface plasma treatment region is at least partially disposed in the nitride layer. The surface plasma treatment region is at least partially disposed at a top surface of the nitride layer between the moat and the drain electrode, a top surface of the nitride layer between the moat and the source electrode, and/or a top surface of the nitride layer under the moat.
