The present invention discloses an electronic device formed of a group III nitride. In one embodiment, a substrate is fabricated by the ammonothermal method and a drift layer is fabricated by hydride vapor phase epitaxy. After etching a trench, p-type contact pads are made by pulsed laser deposition followed by n-type contact pads by pulsed laser deposition. The bandgap of the p-type contact pad is designed larger than that of the drift layer. Upon forward bias between p-type contact pads (gate) and n-type contact pads (source), holes and electrons are injected into the drift layer from the p-type contact pads and n-type contact pads. Injected electrons drift to the backside of the substrate (drain). |
