Abstract
A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor layer provided on a substrate and including a channel layer, a source region connected to the channel layer and having a sheet resistance smaller than a sheet resistance of the channel layer, a drain region connected to the channel layer and having a sheet resistance smaller than the sheet resistance of the channel layer, a plurality of gates provided between the source region and the drain region, arranged in a direction intersecting an arrangement direction of the source region and the drain region, and embedded from an upper surface of the semiconductor layer to at least the channel layer, wherein a part of the source region has a convexity that faces a region between two adjacent gates among the plurality of gates, and protrudes toward a part of the drain region through the region between the two adjacent gates.
