ABSTRACT:
An AlN buffer layer, an undoped GaN layer, an undoped AlGaN layer, a first p-AlGaN layer, a second p-AlGaN layer and a high concentration p-GaN layer are formed in this order on a substrate. A gate electrode establishes ohmic contact with the high concentration p-GaN layer. A source electrode and a drain electrode are formed on the undoped AlGaN layer. Two-dimensional electron gas generated at the interface between the undoped AlGaN layer and the undoped GaN layer and the first and second p-AlGaN layers form a pn junction in a gate region. The second p-AlGaN layer covers a SiN film in part.
