Abstract

A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor substrate and a semiconductor layer. The semiconductor substrate has a main surface that is an Si{100} surface. The substrate has a trench in the main surface. The semiconductor layer is located on surfaces defining the trench to have common crystallographic planes with the semiconductor substrate. The trench is defined by a bottom surface, two long sidewall surfaces that face each other, and two short sidewall surfaces that face each other. The bottom surface and the long sidewall surfaces are Si{100} surfaces.
