Abstract

A semiconductor integrated circuit device includes a HFET formed on part of a substrate made of sapphire and including a Group III-V nitride semiconductor layer, a dielectric film formed on the substrate to cover the top and side surfaces and upper corners of the Group III-V nitride semiconductor layer, a microstrip line formed with the dielectric film interposed between the substrate and the microstrip line, and a drain lead which is formed on part of the dielectric film and through which the HFET is electrically connected to the microstrip line.
