Abstract
A silicon carbide epitaxial substrate includes a silicon carbide single crystal substrate and a silicon carbide layer. In a direction parallel to a central region, a ratio of a standard deviation of a carrier concentration of the silicon carbide layer to an average value of the carrier concentration of the silicon carbide layer is less than 5%. The average value of the carrier concentration is more than or equal to 1×10cmand less than or equal to 5×10cm. In the direction parallel to the central region, a ratio of a standard deviation of a thickness of the silicon carbide layer to an average value of the thickness of the silicon carbide layer is less than 5%. The central region has an arithmetic mean roughness (Sa) of less than or equal to 1 nm. The central region has a haze of less than or equal to 50.
