Abstract

A Schottky barrier diode includes a first semiconductor layer and a second semiconductor layer successively formed above a substrate; and a high-resistance region formed in the first semiconductor layer and the second semiconductor layer and having higher resistance than the first semiconductor layer and the second semiconductor layer. A Schottky electrode and an ohmic electrode spaced from each other are formed on the second semiconductor layer in a portion surrounded with the high-resistance region.
