Al<sub>0.3</sub>Ga<sub>0.7</sub>N/AlN/GaN metal-oxide-semiconductor high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) grown on Si substrates by using ozone water oxidation method are investigated. Superior improvements of 52.2% in two-terminal gate-drain breakdown voltage (BV<sub>GD</sub>), 30.3% in drain-source current density (I<sub>DS</sub>) at V<sub>GS</sub> = 0 V (I<sub>DSS0</sub>), 43.6% in maximum I<sub>DS</sub> (I<sub>DS,max</sub>), 34.7% in maximum extrinsic transconductance (<i>gm</i>,max), and 52.7%/34.3% in unity-gain cutoff/maximum oscillation frequency (<i>fT</i>/<i>f</i><sub>max</sub>) are achieved as compared with a reference Schottky-gated HEMT. Thermal stability is studied by conducting temperature-dependent characterizations of devices at ambient temperatures of 300-550 K. Time-dependent electrical reliability analyses for the devices stressed in off-state (V<sub>GS</sub> = -20 V and V<sub>DS</sub> = 0 V) for 0-60 h and on-state (V<sub>GS</sub> = 2 V and V<sub>DS</sub> = 20 V) for 0-20 h are also made to physically investigate the dominant degradation mechanisms. Excellent reliability and thermal stability at 300-550 K are achieved by the present design.
