Abstract
A semiconductor device comprises a substrate of a first material, a buffer layer of a second, group III-V semiconductor material provided on the substrate epitaxially, and a barrier layer of a third, group III-V compound semiconductor material different from the first and second materials and having a resistivity substantially larger than the resistivity of the buffer layer. The barrier layer further has a second lattice constant different from the lattice constant of the buffer layer and characterized by a band gap substantially larger than the band gap of the buffer layer. The barrier layer is provided on the buffer layer directly and an active layer of a fourth, group III-V compound semiconductor layer is provided on the barrier layer. On the active layer, an active device is provided such that the active device at least has a part formed in the active layer.
