A field effect transistor.

摘要

A field effect transistor is disclosed. The field effect transistor includes: a semiconductor substrate having at least an upper face; a semiconductor layered structure, formed on the upper face of the semiconductor substrate, the semiconductor layered structure including a channel layer; a source electrode formed on the semiconductor layered structure; a drain electrode formed on the semiconductor layered structure at a position apart from the source electrode in a first direction by a prescribed distance; and a gate electrode, formed on the semiconductor layered structure between the source electrode and the drain electrode. The channel layer includes: a first channel region positioned directly under the source electrode; a second channel region positioned directly under the drain electrode; a third channel region which is adjacent to the first channel region and which is not positioned directly under the gate electrode; a fourth channel region which is adjacent to the second channel region and which is not positioned directly under the gate electrode; and a plurality of stripe-like middle channel regions for connecting the third channel region to the fourth channel region.
