Abstract
A semiconductor device includes: a substrate; a buffer layer including GaN formed on the substrate, wherein surfaces of the buffer layer are c facets of Ga atoms; a separating layer including (In Al ) Ga N (where 0≦X≦1, 0≦Y≦1) formed on the buffer layer, wherein surfaces of the separating layer are c facets of In, Al, or Ga atoms; a channel layer including GaN, InGaN, or a combination of GaN and InGaN formed on the separating layer, wherein surfaces of the channel layer are c facets of Ga or In atoms; and an electron supply layer including AlGaN formed on the channel layer, wherein surfaces of the electron supply layer are c facets of Al or Ga atoms, wherein the AlN composition ratio in the separating layer is smaller than the AlN composition ratio in the electron supply layer.
