Abstract

A high electron mobility transistor and a method of manufacturing the same are disclosed. The high electron mobility transistor includes a channel layer, a channel supplying layer causing generation of a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) in the channel layer, a source electrode and a drain electrode provided on respective sides of the channel supplying layer, a depletion forming layer provided on the channel supplying layer to form a depletion region in the 2DEG, a gate electrode provided on a portion of the depletion forming layer, and a current limiting layer provided to contact the gate electrode on another portion of the depletion forming layer. The current limiting layer limits a current flow from the gate electrode to the depletion forming layer according to a voltage applied to the gate electrode.
