Abstract:
1. An integrated device including a vertical III-nitride FET and a Schottky diode, the integrated device comprising: a drain/cathode region comprising a first III-nitride material; a drift region comprising a second III-nitride material coupled to the drain/cathode region; a channel region comprising a third III-nitride material coupled to the drain/cathode region and disposed adjacent to the drain/cathode region along a vertical direction; a gate region at least partially surrounding the channel region and having a first surface coupled to the drift region and a second surface on a side of the gate region opposing the first surface; a source coupled to the channel region; and an anode coupled to the drift region; wherein the channel region is disposed between the drain and the source along the vertical direction such that current flow during operation of the vertical III-nitride FET and the Schottky diode is along the vertical direction.
