The semiconductor device includes a first semiconductor layer of the first conductive type, a second semiconductor layer having the cubic crystalline structure formed on the first semiconductor layer, an electrode formed on the second semiconductor layer, and a reactive region formed between the second semiconductor layer and the electrode. The second semiconductor layer includes an upper surface that is tilted from the (100) plane. The reactive region includes at least one element constituting the second semiconductor layer, at least one element constituting the electrode, and forming a protuberance extending toward the second semiconductor layer.

Semiconductor devices

According to one embodiment, in a method of a semiconductor device, a trench is formed in the direction of a lower surface from an upper surface of a semiconductor layer. A first insulating film is formed to cover an inner surface of the trench. An electrode material is formed to fill the trench and cover the upper surface of the semiconductor layer. The electrode material is selectively removed except a portion of the electrode material to fill the trench and a portion of the electrode material to cover an opening of the trench. The first insulating film to cover an upper portion of the trench is removed. The portions of the electrode material to fill the trench and cover the opening of the trench are etched back to form a first electrode at a lower portion of the trench.
