A nitride compound semiconductor having a low resistivity that is conventionally difficult to be manufactured is provided. Since the nitride compound semiconductor exhibits a high electron mobility, a high-performance semiconductor device may be configured. The present invention may provide, at a high productivity, a group 13 nitride semiconductor of an n-type conductivity that may be formed as a film on a substrate having a large area size and has a mobility of 70 to 140 cm2/(V·s) by a pulsed sputtering method performed in a process atmosphere at room temperature to 700° C.
