Semiconductor device and method of forming the same

Abstract

Provided is a semiconductor device including an enhancement mode (E-mode) high electron mobility transistor (HEMT). The E-mode HEMT includes a substrate, and a channel layer disposed on the substrate. A barrier structure disposed on the channel layer. A pair of source/drain (S/D) metals respectively disposed on the channel layer at opposite sides of the barrier structure. A gate metal disposed on the barrier structure between the pair of S/D metals. The channel layer has a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) layer close to an interface between the channel layer and the barrier structure. A fluorine ion concentration in the channel layer adjacent to the 2DEG layer is greater than that away from the 2DEG layer.
