SiC SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE

Abstract

An SiC semiconductor device includes an SiC semiconductor layer including an SiC monocrystal and having a first main surface as an element forming surface, a second main surface at a side opposite to the first main surface, and a plurality of side surfaces connecting the first main surface and the second main surface, and a plurality of modified lines formed one layer each at the respective side surfaces of the SiC semiconductor layer and each extending in a band shape along a tangential direction to the first main surface of the SiC semiconductor layer and modified to be of a property differing from the SiC monocrystal.
