    Abstract: A gallium nitride (GaN) transistor which includes multiple insulator semiconductor interface regions. Two or more first insulator segments and two or more second insulator segments are positioned between the gate and drain contacts and interleaved together. At least one first insulator segment is nearer to the gate contact than the second insulator segments. At least one second insulator segment is nearer to the drain contact than the first insulator segments. The first and second insulators are chosen such that a net electron donor density above the channel under the first insulator segments is lower than a net electron density above the channel under the second insulator segments. The first insulator segments reduce gate leakage and electric fields near the gate that cause high gate-drain charge. The second insulator segments reduce electric fields near the drain contact and provide a high density of charge in the channel for reduced on-resistance.

    Abstract: An integrated semiconductor device which includes a substrate layer, a buffer layer formed on the substrate layer, a gallium nitride layer formed on the buffer layer, and a barrier layer formed on the gallium nitride layer. Ohmic contacts for a plurality of transistor devices are formed on the barrier layer. Specifically, a plurality of first ohmic contacts for the first transistor device are formed on a first portion of the surface of the barrier layer, and a plurality of second ohmic contacts for the second transistor device are formed on a second portion of the surface of the barrier layer. In addition, one or more gate structures formed on a third portion of the surface of the barrier between the first and second transistor devices. Preferably, the one or more gate structures and the spaces between the gate structures and the source contacts of the transistor devices collectively form an isolation region that electrically isolates the first transistor device from the second transistor device.
