20120217513 | SILICON CARBIDE SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE AND MANUFACTURING METHOD THEREOF - A SiC MOSFET has a subject that resistance in the source region is increased when annealing for metal silicidation is performed to a source region before forming the gate insulating film, the metal silicide layer of the source region is oxidized by an oxidizing treatment (including oxynitriding treatment) when the gate insulating film is formed. When a metal silicide layer to be formed on the surface of a SiC epitaxial substrate is formed before forming a gate insulating film interface layer (oxide film), and an anti-oxidation film for the metal silicide is formed on the metal silicide layer, it is possible to suppress oxidation of the metal silicide layer by the oxidizing treatment upon forming the gate insulating film interface layer and the resistance of the source region can be decreased without lowering the channel mobility. | 08-30-2012 |
20130146897 | 4h-SiC SEMICONDUCTOR ELEMENT AND SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE - A trench groove is formed and a silicon oxide film is buried in the periphery of a channel region of (0001) surface 4h-SiC semiconductor element. The oxide film in the trench groove is defined in such a planar layout that a tensile strain is applied along the direction of the c-axis and a compressive strain is applied along two or more of axes on a plane perpendicular to the c-axis. For example, trench grooves buried with an oxide film may be configured to such a layout that they are in a trigonal shape surrounding the channel, or are arranged symmetrically with respect to the channel as a center when arranged discretely. | 06-13-2013 |
