Abstract
An emitter contact layer, an emitter layer, a base layer, a p-type base layer, a collector layer, and a sub-collector layer are crystal-grown over a first substrate in this order with the main surface as the Group III polar surface. The emitter contact layer includes a nitride semiconductor that is made n-type at a relatively high concentration. The emitter layer includes a nitride semiconductor having a bandgap larger than that of the nitride semiconductor constituting the emitter contact layer. The base layer includes an undoped nitride semiconductor having a bandgap smaller than that of the nitride semiconductor constituting the emitter layer. The p-type base layer includes the same nitride semiconductor as the base layer and made p-type.
