Abstract

Provided is a crystalline multilayer structure having good semiconductor properties. In particular, the crystalline multilayer structure has good electrical properties as follows: the controllability of conductivity is good; and vertical conduction is possible. A crystalline multilayer structure includes a metal layer containing a uniaxially oriented metal as a major component and a semiconductor layer disposed directly on the metal layer or with another layer therebetween and containing a crystalline oxide semiconductor as a major component. The crystalline oxide semiconductor contains one or more metals selected from gallium, indium, and aluminum and is uniaxially oriented.
