A compound semiconductor field effect transistor has a semiconductive layer made of a compound which consists of a single III group element and a single V group element or a compound which consists of two III group elements and a single V group element in the periodic table and a passivation film for protecting the surface of the semiconductive layer. This passivation film is formed of a chalcopyrite made of a compound which consists of a single I group element, a single III group element and two VI group elements or chalcopyrite made of a compound which consists of a single II group element, a single IV group element and two V group elements in the periodic table. Those chalcopyrites have lattice constants close to or equal to a lattice constant of the semiconductive layer. Those chalcopyrites have band gaps wider than that of the semiconductive layer. The semiconductive layer may be GaAs and InP. The chalcopyrite may be (Cu0.12Ag0.88)AlS2 and (Zn0.04Cd0.96)SiP2.
