Enhancement-mode (E-mode) vertical <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$eta $ </tex-math></inline-formula>-Ga<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> metal–oxide–semiconductor (MOS) field-effect transistors featuring a current aperture were developed on a single-crystal <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$eta $ </tex-math></inline-formula>-Ga<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> (001) substrate. Nitrogen ions were implanted into a drift layer grown by halide vapor phase epitaxy to form current blocking layers (CBLs) for vertical source–drain isolation, while Si ions were implanted to form degenerately doped source contact regions and a top-gated lateral channel that was fully depleted at 0-V gate bias. The devices delivered a high output current on/off ratio of <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$2 imes {10}^{{7}}$ </tex-math></inline-formula> despite a nonideal MOS interface that limited the maximum drain current density to <0.1 kA/cm<sup>2</sup>. Pulsed operation without current collapse under off-state voltage stress was demonstrated. Hard breakdown occurred prematurely owing to leakage through the CBLs, but is expected to improve with an optimized nitrogen implantation process. The realization of E-mode vertical Ga<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> transistors based on a manufacturable all-ion-implanted process represents an important step toward practical applications of Ga<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> power electronics.
