Abstract
A device includes a substrate; a buffer layer on the substrate; a barrier layer on the buffer layer, a source electrically coupled to the barrier layer; a gate electrically coupled to the barrier layer; and a drain electrically coupled to the barrier layer. The device further includes an electron concentration reduction structure arranged with at least one of the following: in the barrier layer and on the barrier layer. The electron concentration reduction structure is configured to at least one of the following: reduce electron concentration around the gate, reduce electron concentration around an edge of the gate, reduce electron concentration, increase power gain, increase efficiency, decouple the gate from the drain, decouple the gate from the source, and reduce capacitance.
