| 1. A semiconductor device comprising:
a device formation region;
a substrate including a field effect transistor, the field effect transistor including a heterojunction, a gate electrode,
a source electrode, and a drain electrode, said field effect transistor formed in the device formation region;
a device separation region formed on a semiconductor substrate and spaced apart from the source electrode and drain electrode,
wherein said device separation region includes a layer with a conductive impurity introduced therein, wherein the device separation
region electrically isolates the device formation region upon which the field effect transistor is formed; and
a substrate voltage applying electrode formed on a surface of at least a part of said device separation region and continuously
surrounding a plurality of sides of said field effect transistor, the substrate voltage applying electrode spaced apart from
and electrically separated from the source electrode and the drain electrode.
