摘要:
A trench is formed extending from a surface of a hetero semiconductor region of a polycrystal silicon to the drain region. Further, a driving point of the field effect transistor, where a gate insulating film, the hetero semiconductor region and the drain region are adjoined, is formed at a position spaced apart from a side wall of the trench.

A semiconductor device includes: a semiconductor base; a hetero semiconductor region which is in contact with the semiconductor base and which has a band gap different from that of the semiconductor base; a first electrode connected to the hetero semiconductor region; and a second electrode forming an ohmic contact to the semiconductor base. The hetero semiconductor region includes a laminated hetero semiconductor region formed by laminating a plurality of semiconductor layers in which crystal alignment is discontinuous at a boundary between at least two layers.
摘要:
A semiconductor substrate made of a semiconductor material is prepared, and a hetero semiconductor region is formed on the semiconductor substrate to form a heterojunction in an interface between the hetero semiconductor region and the semiconductor substrate. The hetero semiconductor region is made of a semiconductor material having a bandgap different from that of the semiconductor material, and a part of the hetero semiconductor region includes a film thickness control portion whose film thickness is thinner than that of the other part thereof. By oxidizing the hetero semiconductor region with a thickness equal to the film thickness of the film thickness control portion, a gate insulating film adjacent to the heterojunction is formed. A gate electrode is formed on the gate insulating film. This makes it possible to manufacture a semiconductor device including the gate insulating film with a lower ON resistance, and with a higher insulating characteristic and reliability.

In general, this disclosure describes a semiconductor device that exhibits an increased resistance and reduced leakage current in a reverse-biased state, and a method for manufacturing such a semiconductor device. For example, in one embodiment, the increased resistance in the reverse-biased state is obtained by introducing either a P+ or P− type impurity in a polycrystalline silicon layer formed on an N− type epitaxial layer. Additionally, the semiconductor device maintains a low resistance in a forward-biased state. To keep the forward-biased resistance low, the polycrystalline silicon layer in the vicinity of a gate electrode may be of an N+ type. Furthermore, an N+ type source extracting region is formed on the surface of the polycrystalline silicon layer to connect a source electrode to a drain electrode and maintain a low resistance when forward-biased.
