Abstract

A SiC epitaxial wafer in which a SiC epitaxial layer is formed on a 4H-SiC single crystal substrate having an off angle and a substrate carbon inclusion density of 0.1 to 2.5 inclusions/cm2, wherein a total density of large pit defects and triangular defects caused by substrate carbon inclusions and contained in the SiC epitaxial layer is 0.6 defects/cm2 or less.
