Abstract

See full text

Disclosed is a semiconductor device comprising a p-type SiC semiconductor and an ohmic electrode having an Ni/Al laminated structure provided on the p-type SiC semiconductor. The semiconductor device simultaneously has improved contact resistance and surface roughness in the ohmic electrode. The semiconductor device comprises an ohmic electrode (18) comprising a nickel (Ni) layer (21), a titanium (Ti) layer (22), and an aluminum (Al) layer (23) stacked in that order on a p-type silicon carbide semiconductor region (13). The ohmic electrode (18) comprises 14 to 47 atomic % of a nickel element, 5 to 12 atomic % of titanium element, and 35 to 74 atomic % of an aluminum element, provided that the atomic ratio of the nickel element to the titanium element is 1 to 11.
