摘要:
A method of making a semiconductor device includes forming a p-type semiconductor region to an n-type semiconductor substrate in such a manner that the p-type semiconductor region is partially exposed to a top surface of the semiconductor substrate, forming a Schottky electrode of a first material in such a manner that the Schottky electrode is in Schottky contact with an n-type semiconductor region exposed to the top surface of the semiconductor substrate, and forming an ohmic electrode of a second material different from the first material in such a manner that the ohmic electrode is in ohmic contact with the exposed p-type semiconductor region. The Schottky electrode is formed earlier than the ohmic electrode.

摘要:
A manufacturing method of a semiconductor device comprises a process of doping conductive impurities in a silicon carbide substrate, a process of forming a cap layer on a surface of the silicon carbide substrate, a process of activating the conductive impurities doped in the silicon carbide substrate, a process of oxidizing the cap layer after a first annealing process, and a process of removing the oxidized cap layer. It is preferred that the cap layer is formed from material that includes metal carbide. Since the oxidation onset temperature of metal carbide is comparatively low, the oxidization of the cap layer becomes easy if metal carbide is included in the cap layer. Specifically, it is preferred that the cap layer is formed from metal carbide that has an oxidation onset temperature of 1000 degrees Celsius or below, such as tantalum carbide.

A silicon carbide semiconductor device with a Schottky barrier diode includes a first conductivity type silicon carbide substrate, a first conductivity type silicon carbide drift layer on a first surface of the substrate, a Schottky electrode forming a Schottky contact with the drift layer, and an ohmic electrode on a second surface of the substrate. The Schottky electrode includes an oxide layer in direct contact with the drift layer. The oxide layer is made of an oxide of molybdenum, titanium, nickel, or an alloy of at least two of these elements.

A nonvolatile semiconductor memory device includes a semiconductor substrate having a source, a drain, and a channel region between the source and the drain. The channel region has a first end portion near the drain, a second end portion near the source, and a middle portion between the first and second end portions. The first and second end portions having approximately same width. The memory device is electrically erased by using a hot carrier generated in the first end portion due to avalanche breakdown. The channel region includes a first channel extending from the drain and a second channel adjacent to the first channel. An impurity concentration of the second channel is higher than that of the first channel. An interface between the first and second channels is located in the middle portion between the first and second end portions.
