This is the first report on an AlN/diamond heterojunction field effect transistor (HFET). The AlN epilayer is grown on oxygen‐terminated (111) diamond substrates using metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy at a temperature as high as 1240 °C. The transistor and gate capacitance–voltage characteristics indicate that the HFET behaves as a p‐channel FET with a normally‐on depletion mode. The HFET channel is located at the AlN/diamond interface, and holes are accumulated in diamond close to the interface. The development of the AlN/diamond HFET creates a new possibility for diamond‐based power electronics. (© 2011 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
