A semiconductor device, in which the generation of interface states in the interface region between a nitride semiconductor layer and an aluminum oxide layer is suppressed, includes a first nitride semiconductor layer and an aluminum oxide layer. The first nitride semiconductor layer includes Ga. The aluminum oxide layer directly contacts the upper surface of the first nitride semiconductor layer, and includes H (hydrogen) atoms at least within a defined region from the interface with the first nitride semiconductor layer. In addition, the peak value of an H atom concentration in the above region is in a range of 1×1020 cm−3 to 5×1021 cm−3. |
