The controllability of photo-electrochemical (PEC) etching was investigated for the fabrication of recessed-gate AlGaN/GaN HEMTs. The self-termination depth of the PEC etching was strongly dependent on the light power intensity, showing that the photovoltaic effect of the electrolyte/AlGaN system is the driving force for PEC etching.
