  • Patent number: 8896028
    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes: an epitaxial substrate formed by stacking a plurality of kinds of semiconductors over one semiconductor substrate by epitaxial growth; a field effect transistor of a first conductivity type formed in a first region; a field effect transistor of a second conductivity type formed in a second region; and a protective element formed in a third region. The protective element includes: a first stacking structure formed by etching the epitaxial substrate by vertical etching that proceeds in a stacking thickness direction; and a second stacking structure formed by etching the epitaxial substrate by vertical etching that proceeds in a stacking thickness direction. The protective element has two PN junctions on a current path formed between an upper end of the first stacking structure and an upper end of the second stacking structure via a base part of the first stacking structure and the second stacking structure.

  • Patent number: 8698202
    Abstract: A semiconductor device including at least a p-channel field-effect transistor region formed above a compound semiconductor substrate. The p-channel field-effect transistor region includes an undoped buffer layer; a p-type channel layer formed in contact with the buffer layer; a p-type source region and a p-type drain region formed in the channel layer, being separated with each other; and an n-type gate region formed above the channel layer and between the source region and the drain region. The buffer layer is formed having either a multilayer structure including a hole diffusion control layer with a band gap larger than the channel layer, or a single layer structure including only the hole diffusion control layer.
