Abstract
Aspects generally relate to a P-N junction varactor that can be integrated with high electron mobility transistor (HEMT) in a single device or die. The varactor and HEMT are fabricated with the same materials forming various layers of the varactor and HEMT. Using the same material stack-up to form the varactor and HEMT can reduce the number of processing steps during the fabrication of the integrated varactor and HEMT device. The integrated varactor and HEMT device may be used for RF circuits, such as radio frequency front end (RFFE) devices for use in 5G.
