Abstract:
A nitride based semiconductor device includes a first metallic junction layer, a Schottky junction layer on the first metallic junction layer, a first group III nitride semiconductor layer on the Schottky junction layer, a first insulating pattern layer on the first group III nitride semiconductor layer, the first insulating layer pattern including curved protrusions, a second group III nitride semiconductor layer laterally grown on the first group III nitride semiconductor layer, a first type group III nitride semiconductor layer on the second group III nitride semiconductor layer, the first type group III nitride semiconductor layer being simultaneously doped with aluminum (Al) and silicon (Si), an ohmic junction layer formed on the first type group III nitride semiconductor layer, a second metallic junction layer on the ohmic junction layer, and a metallic supporting substrate on the second metallic junction layer.
