According to studies by the present inventors, when a doping method using an ion implantation and activation process is used for silicon carbide, heat treatment at a high temperature is required for the ion implanted silicon carbide, which may result in difficulty in mass production. Alternatively, when the chemical vapor deposition method is used as in the present embodiment, silicon carbide can be effectively inductively implanted at a relatively low temperature. For example, desired doping can be realized by injecting a gas for the doping source into the deposition chamber . In this case, N, P, As, Sb and Bi can be used as n-type impurities which can be doped to SiC, and B, Al, Ga, In and Ti can be used as p-type impurities. When the above-described process is used, in-situ doping of the silicon carbide layer at a relatively low temperature can ensure process efficiency compared with the ion implantation and activation process.
