Abstract
An Enhancement-mode (E-mode) high electron mobility transistor (HEMT) includes a channel layer with a 2-Dimensional Electron Gas (2DEG), a barrier layer inducing the 2DEG in the channel layer, source and drain electrodes on the barrier layer, a depletion layer on the barrier layer between the source and drain electrodes, and a gate electrode on the depletion layer. The barrier layer is recessed below the gate electrode and the depletion layer covers a surface of the recess and extends onto the barrier layer around the recess.
