Abstract
A GaN related compound semiconductor element includes: a channel layer made of a GaN related compound semiconductor; and a source layer and a drain layer, which are disposed in a manner of sandwiching the channel layer. The source layer includes two adjacent ridge portions which are formed by selective growth. A source electrode is formed over the surface, sandwiched by the ridge portions, of the channel layer, and the surfaces of the respective two adjacent ridge portions. The selective-growth mask formed between the two ridge portions is removed by wet etching. In addition, as another embodiment, a gate electrode is formed in a manner that the direction of the longer dimension of the gate electrode is aligned with the m plane of the channel layer. Moreover, as still another embodiment, the channel layer has a multilayer structure in which a GaN layer doped with no impurity is used as an intermediate layer.
