Abstract
A nitride semiconductor device includes: a substrate; a first nitride semiconductor layer of a first conductivity type which is provided above the substrate; a second nitride semiconductor layer which is provided above the first nitride semiconductor layer; an electron transport layer and an electron supply layer which are sequentially provided above the second nitride semiconductor layer; a third nitride semiconductor layer and a gate electrode which are sequentially provided above the electron supply layer; a source electrode; and a drain electrode, the second nitride semiconductor layer includes: a current conducting portion of the first conductivity type which is located below the third nitride semiconductor layer and includes a first impurity; and a current blocking portion which is provided about the current conducting portion, and the concentration of the first impurity in the electron transport layer is lower than the concentration of the first impurity in the current conducting portion.
