Abstract

A semiconductor device includes a GaN-based semiconductor layer that is formed on a substrate and an opening region, an electron conduction layer formed on an inner surface of the opening region, an electron supply layer that has a larger band gap than the electron conduction layer and is formed on the electron conduction layer disposed on the inner surface of the opening region, and a gate electrode formed on a side surface of the electron supply layer in the opening region. A source electrode is formed on the GaN-based semiconductor layer. A drain electrode is connected to a surface of the GaN-based semiconductor layer opposite to the source electrode.
