ABSTRACT:
Field effect transistors are provided and more particularly those which work at very high frequencies.
According to the invention the field effect transistor has a vertical structure, comprising an access electrode, source or drain, on each of the two faces of the substrate wafer. The gate is formed by an N type epitaxial layer thickness sandwiched between two N.sup.+ type layers. The gate thickness is then limited by the epitaxial layer thickness which can be obtained of the order of a few hundred angstroms. The gate contact is taken by means of lateral metal layers, on the chamfered sides of the epitaxial layer.
