US Patent 11183586 Cascode transistor device

A cascode transistor device includes a semiconductor substrate, and a first and a second compound semiconductor transistors. The first compound semiconductor transistor includes a first n-type doping layer, a first p-type doping layer and a second n-type doping layer sequentially disposed on the semiconductor substrate. The second compound semiconductor transistor includes a third n-type doping layer, a second p-type doping layer and a fourth n-type doping layer sequentially disposed on the second n-type doping layer. Each of these doping layers is formed with an exposed metal contact. The exposed metal contact on the second n-type doping layer is electrically connected to the exposed metal contact on the third n-type doping layer.
