The field effect transistor includes a laminated structure in which a buffer layer, and an electron transporting layer (undoped GaN layer), and an electron supplying layer (undoped AlGaN layer) are laminated in sequence on a sapphire substrate. An npn laminated structure is formed on a source region of the electron supplying layer, and a source electrode is formed on the npn laminated structure. A drain electrode is formed in a drain region of the electron supplying layer, and an insulating film is formed in an opening region formed in the gate region. When a forward voltage greater than a threshold is applied to the gate electrode, an inversion layer is formed and the drain current flows. By changing a thickness and an impurity concentration of the p-type GaN layer, the threshold voltage can be controlled. The electrical field concentration between the gate electrode and the drain electrode is relaxed due to the drift layer, and voltage resistance improves.

An active layer of a first conductive-type includes a channel area. A first contact area and a second contact area of a second conductive-type are formed at positions across the channel area. A source electrode is formed on the first contact area. A drain electrode is formed on the second contact area. A gate electrode is formed above the channel area via a gate insulating layer. A reduced surface field zone of the second conductive-type is formed in the channel area at a position close to the second contact area. Thickness of the reduced surface field zone is 30 nanometers to 100 nanometers.
摘要:
A p-type nitride compound semiconductor layer is formed on a buffer formed on a substrate. An n-type contact region is formed by ion implantation under a source electrode and a drain electrode. An electric-field reducing layer made of an n-type nitride compound semiconductor is formed on the p-type nitride compound semiconductor layer. A career density of the electric-field reducing layer is lower than that of the n-type contact region. A first end portion of the electric-field reducing layer contacts with the n-type contact region, and a second end portion of the electric-field reducing layer overlaps with a gate electrode.

The laser beam with a wavelength having a higher energy than the band gap energy of the material forming the carrier moving layer is irradiated to activate the impurities contained in the constituent layer of the field effect transistor in the method of producing the field effect transistor. The method of the invention does not apply the heating of the substrate or the sample stage to raise the temperature of the semiconductor layer using the thermal conductivity so as to activate the impurities. Thus, the implanted impurities can be activated without deteriorating the performance of the device and reliability.
