In this article, we demonstrate a novel E-mode HEMT featuring in situ AlN dielectric layer on p-GaN cap layer. Compared with conventional gate HEMT, the threshold voltage of AlN/p-GaN shifts from 1.8 to 3.9 V, and forward breakdown is increased 10.0 17.6 V.

Abstract Surface degradation of implanted poly(ether urethane)s was studied quantitatively with a micro‐ATR–FTIR technique. Substantial observed particularly in the soft segment at α‐carbon adjacent to ether linkage. The caused changes concentration profiles soft‐segment groups depth direction, and affected up 10 microns after implantation for weeks. Inhibition by antioxidants indicated oxidative nature degradation. An vivo urethane) mechanism proposed.
