Problems solved by technology

[0005] However, there are still a lot of problems in this inverter: the on-resistance of the p-channel enhancement heterostructure field effect transistor is relatively high, the threshold voltage is relatively low, and the gate electrode leakage of its monolithically integrated n-channel GaN enhancement device is relatively low. Large, low gate voltage swing, which hinders the application of GaN-based inverters and monolithic integrated circuits in power electronic systems
