Title:
SILICON CARBIDE SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING SAME
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2010/134344
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Disclosed are a silicon carbide semiconductor device wherein the resistance of an ohmic contact can be reduced without being accompanied by a process failure, and a method for manufacturing the silicon carbide semiconductor device. Specifically disclosed is a MOSFET composed of a silicon carbide semiconductor, which comprises a p-type contact region (15) that is formed in an SiC epitaxial layer (12) and forms an ohmic contact with a source electrode (20). The p-type contact region (15) has an impurity concentration of not more than 1e20 cm-3 within the region from the surface of the SiC epitaxial layer (12) to the depth of 50 nm, and is provided with a high concentration region (15a) having an impurity concentration of not less than 1e20 cm-3 at a position of 50 nm or more from the surface. The source electrode (20) is formed within an opening that reaches the high concentration region (15a).
