Abstract:
A process for manufacturing a silicon carbide semiconductor device includes providing a silicon carbide wafer, having a substrate. An epitaxial growth for formation of an epitaxial layer, having a top surface, is carried out on the substrate. Following upon the step of carrying out an epitaxial growth, the process includes the step of removing a surface portion of the epitaxial layer starting from the top surface so as to remove surface damages present at the top surface as a result of propagation of dislocations from the substrate during the previous epitaxial growth and so as to define a resulting top surface substantially free of defects.
