Abstract

In a semiconductor device, an AlGaN layer includes a first AlGaN layer and a second AlGaN layer. The second AlGaN layer is positioned between a gate structure portion and a drain electrode and is divided into multiple parts in an arrangement direction in which the gate structure portion and the drain electrode are arranged. A second Al mixed crystal ratio of the second AlGaN layer is less than a first Al mixed crystal ratio of the first AlGaN layer. Accordingly, the semiconductor device is a normally-off-type device and is capable of restricting a decrease of a breakdown voltage and an increase of an on-resistance.
