摘要:
A vertical type MOS field effect transistor has a super junction structure between a source electrode and an N+-type drain region. The super junction structure is constituted by a plurality of P-type single crystal silicon regions and a plurality of N-type single crystal silicon regions. Each of the plurality of P-type single crystal silicon regions and each of the plurality of N-type single crystal silicon regions are arrayed alternately. The super junction has two parts, that is, a cell forming region where a MOS structure is disposed and a peripheral region located at a periphery of the cell forming region. The source electrode contacts one of the P-type single crystal silicon regions in the peripheral region while disposed away from an end portion of the peripheral region that is located at an outermost in the peripheral region.

The semiconductor layer has cathode and anode regions respectively contacting the cathode and anode electrodes. The anode region has a first diffusion region having high surface concentration, a second diffusion region having intermediate surface concentration, and a third diffusion region having low surface concentration. The first diffusion region is covered with the second and third diffusion regions. The second diffusion region has a first side surface facing the cathode region, a second side surface opposite to the cathode region, and a bottom surface extending between the first and second side surfaces. The third diffusion region covers at least one of the first corner part connecting the first side surface with the bottom surface and the second corner part connecting the second side surface with the bottom surface.

A n.sup.- -type source region 5 is formed on a predetermined region of the surface layer section of the p-type silicon carbide semiconductor layer 3 of a semiconductor substrate 4. A low-resistance p-type silicon carbide region 6 is formed on a predetermined region of the surface layer section in the p-type silicon carbide semiconductor layer 3. A trench 7 is formed in a predetermined region in the n.sup.+ -type source region 5, which trench 7 passes through the n.sup.+ -type source region 5 and the p-type silicon carbide semiconductor layer 3, reaching the n.sup.- -type silicon carbide semiconductor layer 2. The trench 7 has side walls 7a perpendicular to the surface of the semiconductor substrate 4 and a bottom side 7b parallel to the surface of the semiconductor substrate 4. The hexagonal region surrounded by the side walls 7a of the trench 7 is an island semiconductor region 12. A high-reliability gate insulating film 8 is obtained by forming a gate insulating layer on the side walls 7a which surround the island semiconductor region 12.

A manufacturing method of a vertical DMOSFET having a concave channel structure, which does not permit the introduction of defects or contaminant into the channel part and which can make the shape of the groove uniform, is disclosed. On a surface of a (100)-oriented n.sup.- -on-n.sup.+ epitaxial wafer is formed an initial groove by chemical dry etching. The grooved surface is then oxidized by LOCOS technique to form a LOCOS oxide film, whereby the concave structure is formed on the epitaxial wafer. The concave width is set to be at least twice the concave depth, and the sidewall angle is set to be approximately 50.degree. to make the sidewall plane (111) of high channel mobility plane. Following this process, p-type and n-type impurities are diffused from the main surface using the LOCOS oxide film as a double diffusion mask to form a body region and a source region.
