Abstract

An AlGaN/GaN HEMT includes: a compound semiconductor layer; a source electrode and a drain electrode formed on an upper side of the compound semiconductor layer; and an Al—Si—N layer being a high-resistance layer disposed in a lower portion of at least one of the source electrode and the drain electrode and higher in an electric resistance value than the source electrode and the drain electrode.
