Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2015/019731
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A silicon carbide semiconductor device provided with a silicon carbide layer (101) comprising a first main surface (P1) and a second main surface (P2), wherein the silicon carbide layer (101) contains: a first layer (81) of a first conductivity type, forming the first main surface (P1); a second layer (82) of a second conductivity type different from the first conductivity type, disposed within the first layer (81); and a third layer (83) of the first conductivity type, disposed within at least the second layer (82) and forming a portion of the second main surface (P2). On the second main surface (P2) of the silicon carbide layer (101), trenches (TR) are disposed, and the trenches (TR) comprise a first sidewall portion (SW1) which exposes the second layer (82) and the third layer (83), and a bottom portion (BT) which continues from the first sidewall portion (SW1) and is positioned within the second layer (82), said trenches additionally being provided with: a gate insulator film (91) covering each of the first sidewall portion (SW1) and the bottom portion (BT); and gate electrodes (92) disposed upon the gate insulator film (91).
