Abstract
【解決手段】まず、炭化珪素基板1の表面を洗浄する(ステップS1)。つぎに、原料ガスをECRプラズマ化し、原料ガスに含まれる原子を炭化珪素基板1に照射することで、炭化珪素基板1の表面にシリコン窒化膜2を成長させる(ステップS2)。つぎに、ECRプラズマ化学気相成長法により、シリコン窒化膜2の表面にシリコン酸化膜3を堆積する(ステップS3)。つぎに、窒素雰囲気中で、シリコン窒化膜2およびシリコン酸化膜3が形成された炭化珪素基板1のアニール処理を行う(ステップS4)。

図1は、実施の形態にかかる半導体装置の要部を示す断面図である。実施の形態にかかる半導体装置は、炭化珪素からなる半導体基板(炭化珪素基板)1の表面にシリコン窒化(SiN)膜2およびシリコン酸化(SiO2)膜3が形成された、例えば、金属−酸化膜−半導体よりなるMOS構造の電圧駆動型デバイスである。
実施の形態にしたがって作製されたMOS構造の電圧駆動型デバイスの構成の一例を示す。図10は、実施の形態にかかる半導体装置の構成を示す断面図である。ここでは、特に限定しないが、耐圧クラスが1200Vであるトレンチゲート型MOSFETを例にして説明する。活性領域部61および周辺耐圧構造部(不図示)は同一半導体基板に形成され、活性領域部の外側を周辺耐圧構造部で取り囲んでいる。また、半導体装置は炭化珪素(SiC)を用いて構成されている。
