Abstract
GaN Super Heterojunction Field Effect Transistors (Super HFETs) based on the polarization junction (PJ) concept are demonstrated on Sapphire substrates. These Super HFETs were fabricated from a GaN/Al0.23Ga0.77N/GaN hetero structure with 2D hole and electron gas densities of 1.1×1013 and 9.7×1012 cm-2 at the respective hetero-interfaces. The Super HFETs show breakdown voltage above 700 V with on-resistances of 15 Ω·mm. In addition, the super HFETs have inherent body diodes and its reverse conducting characteristics are demonstrated.
