Abstract
A method of fabricating a semiconductor structure includes forming a GaN-based semiconductor layer on a substrate, forming a silicon-containing insulating layer on the GaN-based semiconductor layer, forming a recess in the silicon-containing insulating layer in a first etching step, wherein the first etching step is performed by using a fluorine-containing etchant and applying a first bias power, and enlarging the recess to extend into the GaN-based semiconductor layer in a second etching step, wherein the second etching step is performed by using the same fluorine-containing etchant as the first etching step and applying a second bias power that is greater than the first bias power. In addition, a method of fabricating a high electron mobility transistor is provided.
