Abstract

A manufacturing method of a silicon carbide semiconductor device includes the steps of: preparing a semiconductor substrate including a silicon carbide substrate, a drift layer and a first semiconductor layer; forming a plurality of first trenches in a cell portion; forming a gate layer on an inner wall of each first trench by an epitaxial growth method; forming a first insulation film on the surface of the semiconductor substrate; forming a gate electrode on the first insulation film for connecting to the gate layer electrically; forming a source electrode on the first insulation film for connecting to the first semiconductor layer in the cell portion; and forming a drain electrode connected to the silicon carbide substrate electrically.
