NITRIDE SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING SAME

摘要

An nitride semiconductor device according to the present invention is a nitride semiconductor device including: an n-GaN substrate 10; a semiconductor multilayer structure 100 formed on a principal face of the n-GaN substrate 10, the semiconductor multilayer structure 100 including a p-type region and an n-type region; a p-side electrode 32 which is in contact with a portion of the p-type region included in the semiconductor multilayer structure 100; and an n-side electrode 34 provided on the rear face of the n-GaN substrate 10. The rear face of the n-GaN substrate includes a nitrogen surface, such that a carbon concentration at an interface between the rear face and the n-side electrode 34 is adjusted to 5 atom % or less.
