Abstract

A semiconductor device constituting a high electron mobility transistor or metal semiconductor field effect transistor includes an n.sup.+ type InGaAs layer at an upper surface of the device, a source and a drain electrode on the n.sup.+ type InGaAs layer, as non-alloying ohmic contacts, a gate electrode produced of the same metal as the source and drain electrodes, and the gate electrode and the source and drain electrodes are self-aligningly positioned and separated from each other by L-shaped insulating films.
