We report on extremely low off-state leakage current in AlGaN/GaN-on-silicon metal–insulator–semiconductor high-electron-mobility transistors (MISHEMTs) up to a high blocking voltage. Remarkably low off-state gate and drain leakage currents below 1 µA/mm up to 3 kV have been achieved owing to the use of a thick in situ SiN gate dielectric under the gate, and a local Si substrate removal technique combined with a cost effective 15-µm-thick AlN dielectric layer followed by a Cu deposition. This result establishes a manufacturable state-of-the-art high-voltage GaN-on-silicon power transistors while maintaining a low specific on-resistance of approximately 10 mΩcenterdotcm2.
