SILICON CARBIDE SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THEREOF

摘要

A silicon carbide semiconductor device is provided that includes a semiconductor layer made of silicon carbide and having a surface with a trench having a sidewall formed of a crystal plane tilted at an angle in a range of not less than 50° and not more than 65° relative to the {0001} plane, and an insulating film formed to contact the sidewall of the trench. A maximum value of the nitrogen concentration in a region within 10 nm from the interface between the sidewall of the trench and the insulating film is not less than 1×1021 cm−3, and the semiconductor device has a channel direction in a range of ±10° relative to the direction orthogonal to the <−2110> direction in the sidewall of the trench. A method of manufacturing the silicon carbide semiconductor device is also provided.
