Abstract
A modulation doped field effect transistor (10) is formed to have a drain (28, 12, 11) that is vertically displaced from the source (16, 17) and channel (20, 21) regions. The transistor (10) has the source (16, 17), channel (20, 21) and a portion of the drain (28) arranged laterally so that current (27) flows from the source (16, 17) laterally to the drain (28, 12, 11). A heterojunction layer (18) on the channel region (20, 21) facilitates forming a two dimensional electron gas in the channel (20, 21) region which provides the transistor (10) with a high transconductance.
