Title:
NITRIDE SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING THE SAME
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2010/100709
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Provided are a vertical nitride semiconductor device wherein generation of a leak current can be suppressed and a method for manufacturing such nitride semiconductor device. A nitride semiconductor device (100) is a vertical HEMT, and is provided with an n- type GaN first nitride semiconductor layer (2), p+ type GaN second nitride semiconductor layers (6a, 6b), an n- type GaN third nitride semiconductor layer (9), and an n- type AlGaN fourth nitride semiconductor layer (8) forming heterojunction on a surface of the third nitride semiconductor layer (9). At positions isolated from the periphery of the third nitride semiconductor layer (9), openings (11a, 11b) which penetrate the third nitride semiconductor layer (9) and reach surfaces of the second nitride semiconductor layers (6a, 6b) are arranged. In the openings (11a, 11b), source electrodes (12a, 12b) are arranged. An etching damage (7b) in contact with the source electrodes (12a, 12b) is surrounded by a region where the etching damage is not formed.
