In a semiconductor device of the present invention, the top surface of an n-type silicon carbide layer formed on a silicon carbide substrate is miscut from the (0001) plane in the direction. A gate electrode, a source electrode and other elements are arranged such that in a channel region, the dominating current flows along a miscut direction. In the present invention, a gate insulating film is formed and then heat treatment is performed in an atmosphere containing a group-V element. In this way, the interface state density at the interface between the silicon carbide layer and the gate insulating film is reduced. As a result, the electron mobility becomes higher in a miscut direction A than in the direction perpendicular to the miscut direction A.

The method for fabricating a nitride semiconductor of the present invention includes the steps of: (1) growing a first semiconductor layer made of a first group III nitride over a substrate by supplying a first group III source and a group V source containing nitrogen; and (2) growing a second semiconductor layer made of a second group III nitride on the first semiconductor layer by supplying a second group III source and a group V source containing nitrogen. At least one of the steps (1) and (2) includes the step of supplying a p-type dopant over the substrate, and an area near the interface between the first semiconductor layer and the second semiconductor layer is grown so that the density of the p-type dopant locally increases.
