Abstract
A high electron mobility transistor (HEMT) includes a semiconductor layer on a substrate; an insulating film on the semiconductor layer; a gate electrode in contact with a surface of the semiconductor layer through an opening in the insulating film; and a conductive film provided between the insulating film and a portion of the gate electrode at peripheries of the opening. The insulating film and the conductive film are made of respective materials containing silicon (Si). The gate electrode includes a Schottky metal in contact with the semiconductor layer and a cover metal provided on the Schottky metal. The Schottky metal covers the conductive film thereunder.
