Abstract

A semiconductor device includes first and second nitride semiconductor layers, a first electrode electrically connected to the first nitride semiconductor layer, a second electrode electrically connected to the first nitride semiconductor layer, a gate electrode between the first and second electrodes, a first field plate electrode electrically connected to the first electrode, a second field plate electrode between the gate electrode and the second electrode and electrically connected to the first electrode, a first conductive layer on the gate electrode, and a second conductive layer on the first conductive layer. A distance between the gate electrode and the second field plate electrode in a lateral direction is shorter than a distance between the first conductive layer and the second field plate electrode in the lateral direction, and is equal to or shorter than a distance between the second conductive layer and the second field plate electrode.
