In an embodiment of the present invention, a Trench MOSFET includes a
trench region provided on a semiconductor substrate. The semiconductor
substrate includes a P-type semiconductor substrate, a P-type
semiconductor epitaxial layer, an N-type semiconductor body region, and a
P-type semiconductor source diffusion. The substrate, the epitaxial
layer, the body region, and the source diffusion are adjacently formed in
this order. A P-type semiconductor channel region formed of a SiGe layer
is provided on a bottom surface and a side wall of the trench region.
This facilitates carrier movement in the channel region, reducing ON
resistance of the Trench MOSFET. Thus, a Trench MOSFET allowing reduction
in the ON resistance without reducing a breakdown voltage is realized.
