Abstract

Performance of a semiconductor device is improved. The semiconductor device includes a substrate composed of silicon, a semiconductor layer composed of p-type nitride semiconductor provided on the substrate, and a transistor including a channel layer provided on the semiconductor layer. The semiconductor device further includes an n-type source region provided in the channel layer, and an n-type drain region provided in the channel layer separately from the source region in a plan view.Each of the source region and the drain region is in contact with the semiconductor layer.
