β-Ga2O3 is a wide-bandgap semiconductor with a breakdown field of 8 MV/cm, making it a promising material for high-power devices. The incorporation of Al atoms to β-Ga2O3 has been reported to increase the breakdown field, leading to expectations of improved device breakdown voltage. While β-(Al,Ga)2O3 channel metal-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MESFETs) have been reported at this stage, their DC characteristics significantly lag behind those of β-Ga2O3 channel MESFETs. In this study, we report an enhancement in DC characteristics by utilizing β-(Al,Ga)2O3 layers with varying impurity concentrations, demonstrating an improvement in performance.
