ABSTRACT:
It is an object of the present invention to provide a nitride semiconductor element, which uses Si as a substrate, and whose voltage in the forward direction (Vf) is lower than in the prior art. In the nitride semiconductor element which has a nitride semiconductor layer over an Si substrate, at least a portion of the Si substrate and the nitride semiconductor layer are included in an current pass region, and the electrical conductivity type of the current pass region on the Si substrate is p-type. Furthermore, in the nitride semiconductor element which has a nitride semiconductor layer over an Si substrate, at least a portion of the Si substrate and the nitride semiconductor layer are included in an current pass region, and the majority carriers of the current pass region of the Si substrate are holes.
