Abstract
A high electron mobility transistor (HEMT) made of primarily nitride semiconductor materials is disclosed. The HEMT, which is a type of reverse HEMT, includes, on a C-polar surface of a SiC substrate, a barrier layer and a channel layer each having N-polar surfaces in respective top surfaces thereof. The HEMT further includes an intermediate layer highly doped with impurities and a Schottky barrier layer on the channel layer. The Schottky barrier layer and a portion of the intermediate layer are removed in portions beneath non-rectifying electrodes but a gate electrode is provided on the Schottky barrier layer.
