Abstract

A MISFET, such as a GaN transistor, with low gate leakage. In one embodiment, the gate leakage is reduced with a compensated GaN layer below the gate contact and above the barrier layer. In another embodiment, the gate leakage is reduced by employing a semi-insulating layer below the gate contact and above the barrier layer.
