Abstract

Abstract A Schottky gate electrode structure of a GaAs field effect semiconductor device comprises a Ti film (14) having a thickness of 2 nm to 25 nm and provided adherently on a GaAs substrate (1) including source and drain regions (3a, 3b), and a refractory electrode film (15) provided on the Ti film (14) and formed of a material selected from W, Mo, Cr, Ta, Nb, V, Hf, Zr, nitrides of these metals, silicides of these metals, carbides of these metals, Ti-W alloys, WSixNy, TiNx, and TiSix. Adhesion of the refractory electrode film to the GaAs substrate is increased, and heat resisting properties of Schottky characteristics are improved according to the thin Ti film.
