Abstract
It is an object of the present invention to provide a silicon carbide semiconductor device that reduces an influence of an off-angle of a silicon carbide substrate on characteristics of the semiconductor device and achieves improved operational stability and reduced resistance. In a trench-gate silicon carbide MOSFET semiconductor device formed on the silicon carbide semiconductor substrate having the off-angle, a low-channel doped region is provided on a first sidewall surface side of the trench in a well region, and a high-channel doped region having an effective acceptor concentration lower than that of the low-channel doped region is provided on a second sidewall surface side of the trench in the well region.
