Abstract

The present invention relates to a compound semiconductor device and a method of manufacturing the same, wherein on a surface of a compound semiconductor layer including inner wall surfaces of an electrode trench, an etching residue 12a and an altered substance 12b which are produced due to dry etching for forming the electrode trench are removed, and a compound semiconductor is terminated with fluorine. Gate metal is buried in the electrode trench via a gate insulating film, or the gate metal is directly buried in the electrode trench, whereby a gate electrode is formed.

Description

technical field [0001] Embodiments discussed herein relate to a compound semiconductor device and a method of manufacturing the same. Background technique [0002] Nitride semiconductor devices, which are high withstand voltage, high power semiconductor devices, have been actively developed by utilizing characteristics such as high saturation electron velocity, wide band gap, and the like. Many reports have also been made on field effect transistors, particularly, HEMTs (High Electron Mobility Transistors) which are nitride semiconductor devices. In particular, AlGaN / GaN HEMTs using GaN as an electron transit layer and AlGaN as an electron supply layer have attracted attention. In the AlGaN / GaN HEMT, distortion caused by the difference in lattice constant between GaN and AlGaN occurs in AlGaN. Due to the piezoelectric polarization caused by this deformation and the spontaneous polarization of AlGaN, a high-concentration two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) is obtained. Thi...
