Abstract:
A method of forming a semiconductor device includes providing a heterojunction semiconductor body. The heterojunction semiconductor body includes a first type III-V semiconductor layer and a second type III-V semiconductor layer formed over the first type III-V semiconductor layer. The second type III-V semiconductor layer has a different bandgap as the first type III-V semiconductor layer such that a first two-dimensional charge carrier gas forms at an interface between the first and second type III-V semiconductor layers. The second type III-V semiconductor layer has a thicker section and a thinner section. A first input-output electrode is formed on the thicker section. A gate structure and a second input-output are formed on the thinner section. The gate structure is laterally spaced apart from a transition between the thicker and thinner sections of the second type III-V semiconductor layer.

Claim (Index 4):
The method of  claim 1 , further comprising forming a first electrically insulating passivation layer on the heterojunction semiconductor body after forming the gate structure, wherein the first passivation layer directly conforms to the upper surface of the second type III-V semiconductor layer in the thinner section, the thicker section, and the transition between the thicker and thinner sections.
