Abstract
A Metal Insulator Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor (MISFET) has an insulating layer arranged between a gate electrode and a semiconductor substrate. The insulating layer is a layer of amorphous, hydrogenated carbon (a-C:H) with a thickness--in the region of the gate electrode--of up to 1 .mu.m, and with a resistivity (.eta.) greater than or equal to 10.sup.6 .OMEGA..multidot.cm at the boundary surface to the semiconductor substrate. The semiconductor substrate consists of a semiconductor material other than silicon.
