    摘要: In a chamber, a substrate is mounted on a susceptor and then heated to an elevated temperature. Source and diluting gases are supplied into the chamber through source and diluting gas supply pipes provided with respective flow meters. In addition, a doping gas is also supplied through an additive gas supply pipe, which is provided with a pulse valve, and a gas inlet pipe into the chamber by repeatedly opening and closing the pulse valve. In this manner, a doped layer is grown epitaxially on the substrate. In this case, a pulsed flow of the doping gas is directly supplied through the pulse valve onto the substrate from the outlet port of a pressure reducer for a doping gas cylinder. As a result, a steeply rising dopant concentration profile appears in a transition region between the substrate and the doped layer, and the surface of the doped layer is planarized.

    摘要: A silicon carbide thin film is epitaxially grown by an MBE or the like method with silicon atoms 2 being maintained to be in excess of carbon atoms on a growth surface 1a of a silicon carbide crystal in a substrate 1. A silicon carbide substrate with a good crystallinity is thereby achieved at a low temperature with a good reproducibility. This crystal growth is possible at a low temperature of 1300° C. or lower, and the productions of a high-concentration doped film, a selectively grown film, and a grown film of a cubic silicon carbide on a hexagonal crystal are achieved. In crystallizing a cubic silicon carbide on a hexagonal crystal, the use of an off-cut surface inclined towards a direction is effective to prevent an occurrence of twin.

    摘要: An insulated-gate semiconductor element with a trench structure is provided, which has a high breakdown voltage even though a silicon carbide substrate is used that is preferable to obtain a semiconductor element with favorable properties. The surface of a silicon carbide substrate is etched to form a concave portion. Then, a particle beam, for example an ion beam, is irradiated from above, and a defect layer is formed at least in a bottom surface of the concave portion. The substrate is heated in an oxidation atmosphere, and an oxide film is formed at least on a side surface and the bottom surface of the concave portion. Then, a gate electrode is formed on the oxide film. With this method, the oxide film at the bottom surface of the concave portion is thicker than the oxide film at the side surfaces of the concave portion, so that a high breakdown voltage can be ensured, even when the surface of the silicon carbide layer is a face with which a superior epitaxial layer can be attained, such as the (111) Si-face of &bgr;-SiC or the (0001) Si-face of &agr;-SiC.

    摘要: A semiconductor element according to the present invention can perform both a transistor operation and a diode operation via its channel layer. If the potential Vgs of its gate electrode 165 with respect to that of its source electrode 150 is 0 volts, then a depletion layer with a thickness Dc, which has been depleted entirely in the thickness direction, is formed in at least a part of the channel layer 150 due to the presence of a pn junction between a portion of its body region 130 and the channel layer 150, and another depletion layer that has a thickness Db as measured from the junction surface of the pn junction is formed in that portion of the body region 130. If the dielectric constant of the wide bandgap semiconductor is identified by ∈s, the dielectric constant and the thickness of the insulating film 160 are identified by ∈i and Di, respectively, the sum of Dc and Db is identified by Ds, and the absolute value of the turn-on voltage of the diode is identified by Vf0, then Ds
