Abstract: Methods for manufacturing double-slanted gate connected field plates that allow for the simultaneous optimization of electric field distributions between gate and drain terminals and gate and source terminals are described. A technical benefit of manufacturing the double-slanted gate connected field plate using greyscale lithography is that fabrication costs may be substantially reduced by reducing the number of process steps required to form the double-slanted gate connected field plate. The source-side slope and the drain-side slope of the double-slanted gate connected field plate may be concurrently formed with two different slopes or two different step profiles.
