Abstract
When a nitride semiconductor layer into which impurity ions have been implanted is subjected to annealing after a protective film is provided on the nitride semiconductor layer, vacancy defects may be disadvantageously prevented from escaping outside through the surface of the nitride semiconductor layer and disappearing. A manufacturing method of a semiconductor device including a nitride semiconductor layer is provided. The manufacturing method includes implanting impurities into the nitride semiconductor layer, performing a first annealing on the nitride semiconductor layer at a first temperature within an atmosphere of a nitrogen atom containing gas without providing a protective film on the nitride semiconductor layer, forming the protective film on the nitride semiconductor layer after the first annealing, and after the protective film is formed, performing a second annealing on the nitride semiconductor layer at a second temperature that is higher than the first temperature.
