A GaN/SiC hybrid field-effect transistor (HyFET) is proposed as a high-voltage power device that provides a high-mobility lateral AlGaN/GaN channel to reduce the channel resistance and a vertical SiC drift region to sustain the high OFF-state voltage. The performance of the HyFET is evaluated by numerical device simulations. Compared with the conventional SiC MOSFET, the HyFET exhibits a greatly reduced RON together with a low C-GD and low gate charges. The figures of merit Q(G) x R-ON and Q(GD) x R-ON of the HyFET are dramatically improved.
