Abstract
A method for producing a semiconductor device () is disclosed. The semiconductor device () includes: 1) a semiconductor substrate (), 2) a hetero semiconductor area () configured to contact a first main face (A) of the semiconductor substrate () and different from the semiconductor substrate () in band gap, 3) a gate electrode () contacting, via a gate insulating film (), a part of a junction part () between the hetero semiconductor area () and the semiconductor substrate (), 4) a source electrode () configured to connect to the hetero semiconductor area (), and 5) a drain electrode () configured to make an ohmic connection with the semiconductor substrate (). The method includes the following sequential operations: i) forming the gate insulating film (); and ii) nitriding the gate insulating film ().
