Abstract
A field effect semiconductor device having multiple vertically stacked channels (12, 14, 16) separated by independent gate electrodes (13, 15) is provided. The channels (12, 14, 16) are formed on a wide bandgap buffer layer (11) and each channel is coupled a drain electrode (21). Each channel is also coupled to a source electrode (25-26). The quantum well channels (12, 14, 16) and quantum well gates (13, 15) are separated from each other by barrier layers (18) of a wide bandgap semiconductor material.
