摘要:
A circuit structure includes a substrate, an unintentionally doped gallium nitride (UID GaN) layer over the substrate, a donor-supply layer over the UID GaN layer, a gate structure, a drain, and a source over the donor-supply layer. A number of islands are over the donor-supply layer between the gate structure and the drain. The gate structure disposed between the drain and the source. The gate structure is adjoins at least a portion of one of the islands and/or partially disposed over at least a portion of at least one of the islands.

The present disclosure relates to an enhancement mode gallium nitride (GaN) transistor device. The GaN transistor device has an electron supply layer located on top of a GaN layer. An etch stop layer (e.g., AlN) is disposed above the electron supply layer. A gate structure is formed on top of the etch stop layer, such that the bottom surface of the gate structure is located vertically above the etch stop layer. The position of etch stop layer in the GaN transistor device stack allows it to both enhance gate definition during processing (e.g., selective etching of the gate structure located on top of the AlN layer) and to act as a gate insulator that reduces gate leakage of the GaN transistor device.
