We discuss the characteristics of In0.17Al0.83N/GaN high-electron mobility transistors with barrier thicknesses between 33 and 3 nm, which are grown on sapphire substrates by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition. The maximum drain current (at V-G = +2.0 V) decreased with decreasing barrier thickness due to the gate forward drive limitation and residual surface-depletion effect. Full pinchoff and low leakage are observed. Even with 3-nm ultrathin barrier, the heterostructure and contacts are thermally highly stable (up to 1000 degrees C).
