A method of manufacturing a High Electron Mobility Transistor (HEMT) may include forming first and second material layers having different lattice constants on a substrate, forming a source, a drain, and a gate on the second material layer, and changing the second material layer between the gate and the drain into a different material layer, or changing a thickness of the second material layer, or forming a p-type semiconductor layer on the second material layer. The change in the second material layer may occur in an entire region of the second material layer between the gate and the drain, or only in a partial region of the second material layer adjacent to the gate. The p-type semiconductor layer may be formed on an entire top surface of the second material layer between the gate and the drain, or only on a partial region of the top surface adjacent to the gate.

A wire forming method for a semiconductor device includes the steps of depositing an insulation material on a semiconductor substrate and patterning the insulation material to form a first insulation layer, forming a lower capping layer on the first insulation layer, etching the lower capping layer and the first insulation layer to form a first contact hole that exposes a first part of the semiconductor substrate, forming a wire layer over the capping layer and the first part of the semiconductor substrate, performing a chemical and mechanical polishing (CMP) process with respect to the wire layer and the lower capping layer to expose the first insulation layer, forming a second insulation layer over the wire layer and the first insulation layer, and etching the first and second insulation layers to form a second contact hole that exposes a second part of the semiconductor substrate. The wire forming method can prevent the lifting of the wire layer, the splitting of the lower insulation layer, and the formation of a protrusion n the second contact hole.
