Abstract
A high electron mobility transistor (HEMT) and method of producing the same are provided. The HEMT includes a barrier layer formed on a GaN layer. The HEMT also includes a ZrOgate dielectric layer formed by either a ZTB precursor, a TDMA-Zr precursor, or both. The HEMT may also include a recess in the barrier layer in the gate region of the HEMT. The HEMTs may operate in an enhancement mode.
