Abstract
A static induction semiconductor device has a low-resistance drain region, a high-resistance layer disposed on the drain region, a low-resistance source region spaced from the high-resistance layer, a low-resistance gate region disposed in the high-resistance layer, and a hetero layer disposed in an interface between the high-resistance layer and the source region and an interface between the gate region and a surface protective layer on the gate and source regions. The hetero layer, which may be made of AlGaAs, has a band gap larger than a semiconductor crystal such as GaAs of the drain, source, and gate regions. The static induction semiconductor device has a low resistance turned on and can operate in a bipolar mode.
