Abstract: This letter presents first–ever fabricated GaN split-current magnetic sensor device. This is the key technology needed to fully unlock the potential of GaN power technology. Device operation and key manufacturing steps are also presented. The measured relative current sensitivity is constant at 14 % T-1 for wide mT range of the magnetic field. The constant sensitivity of a fabricated sensor can be attributed to device’s 2DEG nature, i.e. its high electron concentration and mobility, and very small layer thickness.
