Abstract

A high electron mobility transistor (HEMT) and method for forming the same are disclosed. The high electron mobility transistor includes a substrate, a mesa structure disposed on the substrate, a passivation layer disposed on the mesa structure, and at least a contact structure disposed in the passivation and the mesa structure. The mesa structure includes a channel layer and a barrier layer disposed on the channel layer. The contact structure includes a body portion and a plurality of protruding portions. The body portion is through the passivation layer. The protruding portions connect to a bottom surface of the body portion and through the barrier layer and a portion of the channel layer.
