Abstract

An HEMT includes, on an SiC substrate, a compound semiconductor layer, a silicon nitride (SiN) protective film having an opening and covering the compound semiconductor layer, and a gate electrode formed on the compound semiconductor layer so as to plug the opening. In the protective film, a projecting portion projecting from a side surface of the opening is formed at a lower layer portion 6a.
