Abstract
A method for producing a semiconductor device having a semiconductor layer of SiC is disclosed. The method comprises the steps of applying an insulation layer on the semiconductor layer, implanting first impurity dopant into the semiconductor layer, and annealing this layer at at least about 1500.degree. C. so that the implanted first impurity dopant is activated, wherein the insulating layer comprises AlN as a major component and the insulating layer is applied before the annealing step and maintained on the semiconductor layer during the annealing step.
