ABSTRACT:
A semiconductor device is made by etching a III-V compound semiconductor layer having a (100) surface using a mask having an opening defined by edges including at least one edge along an [011] direction of the layer so that the surface revealed by etching has a (111) orientation. An electrode is formed on the (111) surface by vacuum vapor deposition.
