ABSTRACT:
A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device including a gallium nitride related semiconductor. The method include preparing a substrate having surface of a gallium nitride related semiconductor; contacting the surface with atomic nitrogen, which is obtained by decomposing a nitrogen-containing gas in a catalytic reaction, to nitride the surface; and forming, on the surface, a gate electrode and source and drain electrodes opposing each other across the gate electrode.
