20160099309 | Method for Growing III-V Epitaxial Layers - Disclosed are methods of growing III-V epitaxial layers on a substrate, semiconductor structures thus obtained, and devices comprising such semiconductor structures. An example semiconductor substrate includes a substrate and a buffer layer on top of the substrate, where a conductive path is present between the substrate and buffer layer. A conductive path may be present in the conductive interface, and the conductive path may be interrupted by one or more local electrical isolations. The local electrical isolation(s) may be positioned with the device such that at least one of the local electrical isolation(s) is located between a high voltage terminal and a low voltage terminal of the device. | 04-07-2016 |

20140159119 | Method for Growing III-V Epitaxial Layers and Semiconductor Structure - Disclosed are methods of growing III-V epitaxial layers on a substrate, a semiconductor structure comprising a substrate, a device comprising such a semiconductor structure, and an electronic circuit. Group III-nitride devices, such as, for example, high-electron-mobility transistors, may include a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) between two active layers. For example, the 2DEG may be between a GaN layer and a AlGaN layer. These transistors may work in depletion-mode operation, which means the channel has to be depleted to turn the transistor off. For certain applications, such as, for example, power switching or integrated logic, negative polarity gate supply is undesired. Transistors may then work in enhancement mode (E-mode). | 06-12-2014 |
