Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) We review our studies on AlGaN/GaN-based electron devices with a low-temperature GaN (LT-GaN) cap layer, such as heterostructure field-effect transistors (HFETs) and Schottky barrier diodes (SBDs) are reviewed.
The nNovel HFETs with a LT-GaN cap layer were have been proposed and fabricated, and we found that by utilizingusing the this LT-GaN cap layer as a gate insulator and providing surface passivation helps to is found to significantly suppress current collapse and gate leakage in AlGaN/GaN HFETs.
Furthermore, the combination of a LT-GaN cap layer and a SiN film for the surface passivation led to both the suppression of current collapse and no significant degradation in the gate-drain breakdown voltage.
We also investigated the correlation between the crystalline quality of LT-GaN cap layers and the current collapse in AlGaN/GaN HFETs, and found that a polycrystalline structure provides the most effective LT-GaN cap layer for suppressing current collapse.
AlGaN/GaN SBDs using a LT-GaN cap layer to provide edge termination were also fabricated on Si substrates.
The collapse-free AlGaN/GaN SBDs exhibited a high breakdown voltage of 1530 V.
