    摘要: A vertical heterostructure field effect transistor including a first layer having a first material, and the first material having a hexagonal crystal lattice structure defining a first bandgap and one or more non-polar planes is provided. The transistor further includes a second layer that is adjacent to the first layer having a second material. Further, the second layer has a first surface and a second surface, and a portion of the second layer first surface is coupled to the surface of the first layer to form a two dimensional charge gas and to define a first region. The second material may have a second bandgap that is different than the first bandgap. Furthermore, the transistor may include a conductive layer that is disposed in the trench and is interposed between the first region and a second region that is not in electrical communication with the first region if no electrical potential is applied to the conductive layer, and an electrical potential applied to the conductive layer allows electrical communication from the first region to the second region.

    摘要: A method of forming a vertical MOSFET device includes forming a trench within a drift layer substrate, the drift layer comprising a first polarity type, the trench generally defining a well region of a second polarity type opposite the first polarity type. An ohmic contact layer is formed within a bottom surface of the trench, the ohmic contact layer comprising a material of the second polarity type. A layer of the second polarity type is epitaxially grown over the drift layer, sidewall surfaces of the trench, and the ohmic contact layer. A layer of the first polarity type is epitaxially grown over the epitaxially grown layer of the second polarity type so as to refill the trench, and the epitaxially grown layers of the first and second polarity type are planarized so as to expose an upper surface of the drift layer substrate.
