Description
まず、本開示の実施形態の概要について説明する。
以下、実施の形態について図に基づいて説明する。なお、以下の図面において、同一または相当する部分には同一の参照番号を付し、その説明は繰り返さない。本明細書中の結晶学的記載においては、個別方位を[]、集合方位を<>、個別面を()、集合面を{}でそれぞれ示している。また結晶学上の指数が負であることは、通常、”−”(バー)を数字の上に付すことによって表現されるが、本明細書中では数字の前に負の符号を付している。
図4に示されるように、第2トレンチ2は、第2側面6と第2底面7との境界部9を有する。第2主面42に対して垂直な方向から見て、境界部9は、第1曲率部91と、第1曲率部91に連なる第1直線部92とを有している。第1直線部92は、たとえば第1方向101に沿って延在する。第1曲率部91は、たとえば円弧状である。第2トレンチ2の第2開口部8は、第2曲率部81と、第2曲率部81に連なる第2直線部82とを有している。第2直線部82は、たとえば第1方向101に沿って延在する。第2曲率部81は、たとえば円弧状である。第2主面42に対して垂直な方向から見て、第2トレンチ2の第2開口部8の面積は、第2底面7の面積よりも大きくてもよい。別の観点から言えば、第2トレンチ2の幅は、第2底面7から第1主面41に向かって拡がっていてもよい。
まず、炭化珪素基板を準備する工程が実施される。たとえば昇華法によって製造された炭化珪素インゴット(図示せず)がスライスされることにより、炭化珪素単結晶基板50が準備される。次に、第1ドリフト層16を形成する工程が実施される。たとえば原料ガスとしてシラン(SiH4)とプロパン(C3H8)との混合ガスを用い、キャリアガスとしてたとえば水素(H2)を用いたCVD(Chemical Vapor Deposition)法により、炭化珪素単結晶基板50上に第1ドリフト層16が形成される(図21参照)。エピタキシャル成長の際、たとえば窒素などのn型不純物が第1ドリフト層16に導入される。第1ドリフト層16は、n型の導電型を有する。
本実施形態に係る炭化珪素半導体装置100によれば、第1主面41には、第1トレンチ1と、第2トレンチ2とが設けられている。第2不純物領域12は、第4不純物領域14と電気的に接続され、かつ第2トレンチ2の第2側面6に沿って第4不純物領域14に向かって延在する接続領域22を有している。
