Abstract
A semiconductor device includes: a substrate; and depletion and enhancement mode JFETs. The depletion mode JFET includes: a concavity on the substrate; a channel layer in the concavity; a first gate region on the channel layer; first source and drain regions on respective sides of the first gate region in the channel layer; first gate, source and drain electrodes. The enhancement mode JFET includes: a convexity on the substrate; the channel layer on the convexity; a second gate region on the channel layer; second source and drain regions on respective sides of the second gate region in the channel layer; second gate, source and drain electrodes. A thickness of the channel layer in the concavity is larger than a thickness of the channel layer on the convexity.
