摘要:
A JFET is a semiconductor device allowing more reliable implementation of the characteristics essentially achievable by employing SiC as a material and includes a wafer having at least an upper surface made of silicon carbide, and a gate contact electrode formed on the upper surface. The wafer includes a first p-type region serving as an ion implantation region formed so as to include the upper surface. The first p-type region includes a base region disposed so as to include the upper surface, and a protruding region. The base region has a width (w1) in the direction along the upper surface greater than a width (w2) of the protruding region. The gate contact electrode is disposed in contact with the first p-type region such that the gate contact electrode is entirely located on the first p-type region as seen in plan view.

The present invention provides a silicon carbide substrate, an epitaxial layer provided substrate, a semiconductor device, and a method for manufacturing the silicon carbide substrate, each of which achieves reduced on-resistance. The silicon carbide substrate is a silicon carbide substrate having a main surface, and includes: a SiC single-crystal substrate formed in at least a portion of the main surface; and a base member disposed to surround the SiC single-crystal substrate. The base member includes a boundary region and a base region. The boundary region is adjacent to the SiC single-crystal substrate in a direction along the main surface, and has a crystal grain boundary therein. The base region is adjacent to the SiC single-crystal substrate in a direction perpendicular to the main surface, and has an impurity concentration higher than that of the SiC single-crystal substrate.

A first silicon carbide substrate has a first front-side surface and a first side surface. A second silicon carbide substrate has a second front-side surface and a second side surface. The second side surface is disposed such that a gap having an opening between the first and second front-side surfaces of the first and second silicon carbide substrates is disposed between the first side surface and the second side surface. A closing portion is provided to close the gap over the opening. By depositing sublimates from the first and second side surfaces onto the closing portion, a connecting portion is formed to connect the first and second side surfaces to each other so as to close the opening. After the step of forming the connecting portion, the closing portion is removed.

A lateral junction field effect transistor includes a first gate electrode layer arranged in a third semiconductor layer between source/drain region layers, having a lower surface extending on the second semiconductor layer, and doped with p-type impurities more heavily than the second semiconductor layer, and a second gate electrode layer arranged in a fifth semiconductor layer between the source/drain region layers, having a lower surface extending on a fourth semiconductor layer, having substantially the same concentration of p-type impurities as the first gate electrode layer, and having the same potential as the first gate electrode layer. Thereby, the lateral junction field effect transistor has a structure, which can reduce an on-resistance while maintaining good breakdown voltage properties.
