Zusammenfassung:A transistor device includes a semiconductor epitaxial layer structure including a channel layer and a barrier layer on the channel layer, wherein the barrier layer has a higher bandgap than the channel layer. A modified access region is provided at an upper surface of the barrier layer opposite the channel layer. The modified access region includes a material having a lower surface barrier height than the barrier layer. A source contact and a drain contact are formed on the barrier layer, and a gate contact is formed between source contact and the drain contact.
