    摘要: A MOSFET includes a silicon carbide substrate, a drift layer made of silicon carbide and including a main surface having an off angle of 50° or more and 65° or less with respect to a {0001} plane, and a gate oxide film formed on and in contact with the main surface of the drift layer. The drift layer includes a p type body region formed to include a region in contact with the gate oxide film. The p type body region has an impurity density of 5×1016 cm−3 or more. A plurality of p type regions of p conductivity type located apart from one another in a direction perpendicular to a thickness direction of the drift layer are arranged in a region in the drift layer lying between the p type body region and the silicon carbide substrate.

    摘要: A MOSFET includes a silicon carbide substrate, an active layer, a gate oxide film, and a gate electrode. The active layer includes a p type body region in which an inversion layer is formed when the gate electrode is fed with a voltage. The inversion layer has an electron mobility μ dependent more strongly on an acceptor concentration Na of a channel region of the p type body region, as compared with a dependency of the electron mobility μ being proportional to the reciprocal of the acceptor concentration Na. The acceptor concentration Na in the channel region of the p type body region is not less than 1×1016 cm−3 and not more than 2×1018 cm3. The channel length (L) is equal to or smaller than 0.43 μm. The channel length (L) is equal to or longer than a spreading width d of a depletion layer in the channel region. The spreading width d is expressed by d=D·Na−C.

    摘要: A silicon carbide layer is epitaxially formed on a main surface of a substrate. The silicon carbide layer is provided with a trench having a side wall inclined relative to the main surface. The side wall has an off angle of not less than 50° and not more than 65° relative to a {0001} plane. A gate insulating film is provided on the side wall of the silicon carbide layer. The silicon carbide layer includes: a body region having a first conductivity type and facing a gate electrode with the gate insulating film being interposed therebetween; and a pair of regions separated from each other by the body region and having a second conductivity type. The body region has an impurity density of 5×1016 cm−3 or greater. This allows for an increased degree of freedom in setting a threshold voltage while suppressing decrease of channel mobility.
