Abstract:
Techniques are disclosed for forming monolithic integrated circuit semiconductor structures that include a III-V portion implemented with III-N semiconductor materials, such as gallium nitride, indium nitride, aluminum nitride, and mixtures thereof. The disclosed semiconductor structures may further include a CMOS portion implemented with semiconductor materials selected from group IV of the periodic table, such as silicon, germanium, and/or silicon germanium (SiGe). The disclosed techniques can be used to form highly-efficient envelope tracking devices that include a voltage regulator and a radio frequency (RF) power amplifier that may both be located on the III-N portion of the semiconductor structure. Either of the CMOS or III-N portions can be native to the underlying substrate to some degree. The techniques can be used, for example, for system-on-chip integration of a III-N voltage regulator and RF power amplifier along with column IV CMOS devices on a single substrate.

Claim (Index 18):
The integrated circuit of  claim 14 , wherein at least one of the voltage regulator and the RF power amplifier comprises a polarization layer above a region comprising GaN and the polarization layer comprises at least one of aluminum nitride, aluminum gallium nitride, indium aluminum nitride or indium aluminum gallium nitride.
