Abstract

Abstract A semiconductor device having a single substrate made of silicon carbide; an epitaxial film made of AlxInyGa(1-x-y)N which is selectively formed on the single substrate; an amplifier section including a gate formed on the single substrate and a source layer and a drain layer which are formed within the single substrate; and another amplifier section formed on the epitaxial film.
