Abstract
A nitride semiconductor device in which contact resistance between an ohmic electrode and an ohmic recess portion is reduced and a method of manufacturing the nitride semiconductor device are provided. The nitride semiconductor device includes: a first nitride semiconductor layer formed on a substrate; a second nitride semiconductor layer formed on the first nitride semiconductor layer and having a bandgap wider than a bandgap of the first nitride semiconductor layer; an ohmic recess portion formed in at least the second nitride semiconductor layer; and an ohmic electrode provided in contact with the ohmic recess portion. The ohmic recess portion includes a corrugated structure in at least a part of a plane in contact with the ohmic electrode.
