Abstract
An insulated gate silicon carbide semiconductor device includes: a drift layer of a first conductivity type on a silicon carbide substrate of 4H type with a {0001} plane having an off-angle of more than 0° as a main surface; a first base region; a source region; a trench; a gate insulating film; a protective diffusion layer; and a second base region. The trench sidewall surface in contact with the second base region is a surface having a trench off-angle of more than 0° in a <0001> direction with respect to a plane parallel to the <0001> direction. The insulated gate silicon carbide semiconductor device can relieve an electric field of a gate insulating film and suppress an increase in on-resistance and provide a method for manufacturing the same.
