High-Performance GaN Vertical Fin Power Transistors on Bulk GaN Substrates

This letter reports a GaN vertical fin power field-effect-transistor structure with submicron fin-shaped channels on bulk GaN substrates. In this vertical transistor design only n-GaN layers are needed, while no material regrowth or p-GaN layer is required. A combined dry/wet etch was used to get smooth fin vertical sidewalls. The fabricated transistor demonstrated a threshold voltage of 1 V and s...
