Abstract

A fabricating method of compound semiconductor device is proposed which has a step of varying selective growth ratio of crystal by changing either a mean free path of material gas in gas atmosphere for use in crystal growth or a thickness of a stagnant layer of the material gas, using selective growth mask having opening portion consisting of first region having a narrow width and second region having a wide width.
