Abstract

In the present invention, a vertical MOSFET is formed by growing epitaxial Si on a SiC substrate and forming a Si oxide layer on the Si. In particular, a semiconductor device according to the present invention includes a SiC substrate, and an epitaxial Si layer formed on a surface of the SiC substrate, and a Si oxide layer formed on the epitaxial Si layer, and a gate electrode formed on the Si oxide layer, and a source region formed in the epitaxial Si layer, and a drain electrode connected to the SiC substrate.

Claims (8)

1 . A semiconductor device comprising:

a SiC substrate;

an epitaxial silicon layer formed on a surface of the SiC substrate;

a silicon oxide layer formed on the epitaxial silicon layer;

a gate electrode formed on the silicon oxide layer;

a source region formed in the epitaxial silicon layer; and
