Abstract

A semiconductor device includes an n-type oxide semiconductor layer, a gate electrode above the oxide semiconductor layer, a gate insulation layer between the oxide semiconductor layer and the gate electrode, a first terminal connected to the oxide semiconductor layer, and a second terminal connected to the gate electrode, a potential applied to the second terminal being higher than a potential applied to the first terminal.
