Semiconductor device

摘要

Semiconductor device including: silicon-based substrate; first buffer layer on silicon-based substrate and is formed of first layer containing Al composition and second layer containing less Al than the first layer, the first and second layers being alternately stacked; second buffer layer on the first buffer layer and is formed of third layer containing Al composition and fourth layer containing less Al than the third layer, the third and fourth layers being alternately stacked; and third buffer layer on the second buffer layer and is formed of fifth layer containing Al composition and sixth layer containing less Al than the fifth layer, the fifth and sixth layers being alternately stacked, wherein the second buffer layer contains more Al than the first and third buffer layers. Thus, the semiconductor device leakage can be suppressed while reducing stress which is applied to buffer layer and can improve flatness of active layer upper face.

1. A semiconductor device comprising:
a silicon-based substrate; a first buffer layer that is provided on the silicon-based substrate and is formed of a first layer containing an Aluminum composition and a second layer containing less Aluminum composition than the first layer, the first layer and the second layer being alternately stacked; a second buffer layer that is provided on the first buffer layer and is formed of a third layer containing an Aluminum composition and a fourth layer containing less Aluminum compostion than the third layer, the third layer and the fourth layer being alternately stacked; and a third buffer layer that is provided on the second buffer layer and is formed of a fifth layer containing an Aluminum composition and a sixth layer containing less Aluminum composition than the fifth layer, the fifth layer and the sixth layer being alternately stacked, wherein the second buffer layer contains, as a whole, more Aluminum composition than the first buffer layer and the third buffer layer, and the fourth layer has a thickness more than or equal to a critical film thickness and contains more dislocations than the second layer and the sixth layer.
