    摘要: It is an object of the present invention to provide a semiconductor device, which can simultaneously achieve a normally-off mode of HFET and an improvement in Imax, and further achieve an improvement in gm and a reduction in gate leakage current. In order to keep a thin barrier layer 13 on an operation layer 12 of a substrate 11 directly under a gate electrode for mostly contributing to achieve the normally-off mode and also implement the high Imax, it is configured in such a way that a thickness of the barrier layer 13 can be increased by the semiconductor layer 17 between gate and source regions and between gate and drain regions. It is therefore possible to achieve the normally-off mode and an improvement in Imax as compared with an FET in which a thickness of the barrier layer is designed so as to be uniform. An insulating film 18 with a dielectric constant higher than that of the barrier layer is further inserted between a gate electrode 16 and the barrier layers 13, so that an improvement in gm and a reduction in gate leakage current can be achieved.

    摘要: A semiconductor device includes a first group III-V nitride semiconductor layer, a second group III-V nitride semiconductor layer having a larger band gap than the first group III-V nitride semiconductor layer and at least one ohmic electrode successively formed on a substrate. The ohmic electrode is formed so as to have a base portion penetrating the second group III-V nitride semiconductor layer and reaching a portion of the first group III-V nitride semiconductor layer disposed beneath a two-dimensional electron gas layer. An impurity doped layer is formed in portions of the first group III-V nitride semiconductor layer and the second group III-V nitride semiconductor layer in contact with the ohmic electrode.

    摘要: In the structure of a semiconductor device of the present invention, a first source electrode is connected to a conductive substrate through a via hole, and a second source electrode is formed. Thus, even if a high reverse voltage is applied between a gate electrode and a drain electrode, electric field concentration likely to occur at an edge of the gate electrode closer to the drain electrode can be effectively dispersed or relaxed. Moreover, the conductive substrate is used as a substrate for forming element formation layers, so that a via hole penetrating the substrate to reach the backside thereof does not have to be formed in the conductive substrate. Thus, with the strength necessary for the conductive substrate maintained, the first source electrode can be electrically connected to a backside electrode.
