Abstract :
We report on the experimental demonstration of a novel n-channel GaN epilayer RESURF GaN MOSFET with good tradeoff between breakdown voltage and specific on-resistance for the first time. Device with 4-mum channel length and 16-mum RESURF length has breakdown voltage up to 730 V with specific on-resistance 34 mOmegamiddotcm2 (VG - VT = 20 V), best reported to date.
