The invention provides for a field effect transistor (FET) which includes a substrate and a buffer layer formed upon the substrate and an active layer formed upon the buffer layer. The active layer includes a gate region, drain region and source region. In addition, a channel region is formed in the active layer intermediate the source region and drain region. The channel region includes a first portion of reduced thickness adjacent the drain region. The active layer may include a recess adjacent the drain region to provide the thin channel region. Preferably, the thickness of the first portion of the channel region is equal to the undepleted channel thickness within the second portion of the channel region adjacent the first portion. The substrate, buffer layer, active layer, and degenerate layers are preferably fabricated of silicon carbide or gallium nitride. Further, the FET preferably includes a p type buffer, n type active layer, and n+ degenerate layers. The FET may also include a surface-effect-suppressive layer which preferably covers portions of the active layer and the degenerate layers.
