Abstract

A nitride-based semiconductor device includes a first nitride-based semiconductor layer, a second nitride-based semiconductor layer, a source electrode, a drain electrode, a gate electrode, and a third nitride-based semiconductor layer. The first nitride-based semiconductor layer has at least one trench. The second nitride-based semiconductor layer is disposed on the first nitride-based semiconductor layer and spaced apart from the trench. The source electrode and the drain electrode are disposed above the second nitride-based semiconductor layer. The gate electrode is disposed above the second nitride-based semiconductor layer and between the source and drain electrodes, so as to at least define a drift region between the gate electrode and the drain electrode and overlaps with the trench. The third nitride-based semiconductor layer is at least disposed in the trench and extends upward from the trench to make contact with the second nitride-based semiconductor layer.
