The semiconductor device is formed in the form of a GaN-based stacked layer including an n-type drift layer 4, a p-type layer 6, and an n-type top layer 8. The semiconductor device includes a regrown layer 27 formed so as to cover a portion of the GaN-based stacked layer that is exposed to an opening 28, the regrown layer 27 including a channel. The channel is two-dimensional electron gas formed at an interface between the electron drift layer and the electron supply layer. When the electron drift layer 22 is assumed to have a thickness of d, the p-type layer 6 has a thickness in the range of d to 10d, and a graded p-type impurity layer 7 whose concentration decreases from a p-type impurity concentration in the p-type layer is formed so as to extend from a (p-type layer/n-type top layer) interface to the inside of the n-type top layer. |
