HFET with low access resistance

A novel semiconductor power transistor is presented. The semiconductor structure is simple and is based on a Hetero-structure FET structure, where the access regions have been eliminated so as to effectively obtain a lower specific on-resistance, and a higher control on the transport properties of the device, drastically reducing the dispersion phenomena associated with these regions. The present invention can be realized both with polar and non-polar (or semi-polar) materials, without requiring delta doping implantation. It can be fabricated as an enhancement or depletion mode device with much higher control on the device threshold voltage with respect to state-of-the-art HFET devices, and achieving superior RF switching performance. Furthermore, due to the absence of access regions, enhancement mode devices can be realized without discontinuity in the channel conductivity, which results in an even lower on-resistance.
