Abstract
A semiconductor multi-layer substrate includes a substrate, a buffer layer formed on the substrate and made of a nitride semiconductor, an electric-field control layer formed on the buffer layer and made of a nitride semiconductor, the electric-field control layer having conductivity in the substrate's lateral direction, an electric-field relaxation layer formed on the electric-field control layer and made of a nitride semiconductor, and an active layer formed on the electric-field relaxation layer and made of an nitride semiconductor. A resistance in the substrate's lateral direction of the electric-field control layer is equal to or smaller than 10 times a resistance of the electric-field relaxation layer, and a ratio of an electric field share between the electric-field relaxation layer and the buffer layer is controlled by a ratio between a thickness of the electric-field relaxation layer and a thickness of the buffer layer.
