Oxide semiconductor device and method for manufacturing same

Abstract

An object is to provide a technology for enabling prevention of deterioration of characteristics of an oxide semiconductor device. The oxide semiconductor device includes an n-type gallium oxide epitaxial layer, a p-type oxide semiconductor layer, and an oxide layer. The p-type oxide semiconductor layer is disposed above the n-type gallium oxide epitaxial layer, contains an element different from gallium as a main component, and has p-type conductivity. The oxide layer is disposed between the n-type gallium oxide epitaxial layer and the p-type oxide semiconductor layer, and is made of a material different from gallium oxide and different at least partly from a material of the p-type oxide semiconductor layer.
