    Abstract: A metal-oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (MOSFET) includes a source region and a drain region of a first conductivity type. The MOSFET additionally include a body region of a second conductivity type, where the body region underlies at least a portion of the source region and the drain region. The MOSFET further includes a buried region of the first conductivity type, where the buried region is disposed between the body region and a substrate, where the buried region is configured to reduce a capacitance between the source region and the drain region in response to an indicated voltage applied between the body region and the buried region.

    Abstract: A lateral GaN superjunction transistor or switching device that is configured to have higher breakdown voltage and lower on-resistance as compared to other GaN-based switching devices. The lateral GaN superjunction transistor includes a heavily doped buried implant region (hereinafter, “buried implant region”) in the substrate underlying the transistor that operates as backside field plate (BFP) to control or reduce gate-drain electric fields at the surface of the transistor, thereby enabling the transistor to operate at higher voltages while reducing charge trapping and breakdown effects. The lateral GaN superjunction transistor operates similarly to a vertical silicon superjunction FET to enable operation of the transistor at higher voltages than other GaN or semiconductor devices, such as to enable the construction of faster or higher power electronic circuits.
