Abstract

A semiconductor device is fabricated by the step of forming a gate insulation film of a GaS film on a compound semiconductor layer; the step of forming an inter-layer insulation film on the gate insulation film; the step of etching the inter-layer insulation film selectively with respect to the gate insulation film by the use of an etchant containing hydrogen fluoride and ammonium fluoride, the step of exposing a prescribed region of the gate insulation film; and the step of forming a gate electrode on the exposed gate insulation film.
