Abstract:
A trench groove is formed and a silicon oxide film is buried in the periphery of a channel region of (0001) surface 4h-SiC semiconductor element. The oxide film in the trench groove is defined in such a planar layout that a tensile strain is applied along the direction of the c-axis and a compressive strain is applied along two or more of axes on a plane perpendicular to the c-axis. For example, trench grooves buried with an oxide film may be configured to such a layout that they are in a trigonal shape surrounding the channel, or are arranged symmetrically with respect to the channel as a center when arranged discretely.

Abstract:
When a gate length is reduced for the purpose of reducing on-resistance in a SiC DOMSFET, it is difficult to achieve both of the reduction of on-resistance by the reduction of gate length and the high element withstand voltage at the same time. In the present invention, a body layer is formed after the source diffusion layer region is formed and then a portion of the source diffusion layer region is recessed. Because of the presence of the body layer, the distances between the source diffusion region and respective end portions can be increased, a depletion layer is effectively expanded, and electric field concentration at the end portions can be suppressed, thereby improving withstand voltage characteristics. Consequently, the present invention can provide a silicon carbide semiconductor device that achieves both of the reduction of channel resistance by the reduction of gate length and the high element withstand voltage at the same time.

Abstract:
Disclosed herein is a technique for realizing a high-performance and high-reliability silicon carbide semiconductor device. A trenched MISFET with a trench formed into the drift through a p-type body layer 105 includes an n-type resistance relaxation layer 109 covering the bottom portion of the trench, and a p-type field relaxation layer 108. The p-type field relaxation layer 108 is separated from the trench bottom portion via the resistance relaxation layer 109, and is wider than the resistance relaxation layer 109. This achieves a low ON resistance, high reliability, and high voltage resistance at the same time. By forming the field relaxation layer beneath the trench, feedback capacitance can be controlled to achieve a high switching rate and high reliability.
