Original Abstract Submitted
According to one embodiment, a nitride semiconductor includes a nitride member. The nitride member includes a first nitride region including AlGaN (0<x1≤1), a second nitride region including AlGaN (0<x2<1, x2<x1), and a third nitride region. The second nitride region is between the first nitride region and the third nitride region. The third nitride region includes Al, Ga, and N. The third nitride region does not include carbon, alternately a third carbon concentration in the third nitride region is lower than a second carbon concentration in the second nitride region.
