Abstract

A first surface layer made of compound semiconductor material is defined in a surface area of a substrate. A first intermediate layer is formed on the surface layer, the first intermediate layer being made of compound material having Ga as a III group element and S as a VI element and having a thickness of at least two monolayers or thicker. A first electrode is formed on the first intermediate layer, being electrically connected to the first surface layer with an ohmic contact.
