As Figure 2 shown, the first cell 1 further includes a first deep well region 11 and a second deep well region 12 which are all formed in the epitaxial layer 5 and are connected to the interlayer dielectric layer 6, a first shallow well region 13 formed in the first deep well region 11, a second shallow well region 14 formed in the second deep well region 12, two first source regions 15 formed in the first deep well region 11, two second source regions 16 formed in the second deep well region 12, and a first gate oxide layer 17 formed in the interlayer dielectric layer 6 and connected to the epitaxial layer 5, the first deep well region 11, and the second deep well region 12, and a first polysilicon gate 18 formed in the interlayer dielectric layer 6 and covering the first gate oxide layer 17. Among them, the two first source regions 15 are symmetric with respect to the first shallow well region 13 and are both connected to the first shallow well region 13, and the two second source regions 16 are symmetric with respect to the second shallow well region 14 and are both connected to the second shallow well region 14. As Figure 3As shown in the figure, the second cell 2 includes a third deep well region 21 and a fourth deep well region 22 that are all formed in the epitaxial layer 5 and are in contact with the interlayer dielectric layer 6, a third shallow well region 23 formed in the third deep well region 21, a fourth shallow well region 24 formed in the fourth deep well region 22, a second gate oxide layer 25 formed in the interlayer dielectric layer 6 and covering the third deep well region 21, a third gate oxide layer 26 formed in the interlayer dielectric layer 6 and covering the fourth deep well region 22, a second polysilicon gate 27 formed in the interlayer dielectric layer 6 and covering the second gate oxide layer 25, and a third polysilicon gate 28 formed in the interlayer dielectric layer 6 and covering the third gate oxide layer 26. Among them, the source electrode layer 7 includes a first settling portion 71 that makes ohmic contact with both the first shallow well region 13 and the first source region 15, a second settling portion 72 that makes ohmic contact with both the second shallow well region 14 and the second source region 16, a third settling portion 73 that makes ohmic contact with the third shallow well region 23, a fourth settling portion 74 that makes Schottky contact with both the third deep well region 21, the fourth deep well region 22, and the epitaxial layer 5, and a fifth settling portion 75 that makes ohmic contact with the fourth shallow well region 24.

[0022] For the silicon carbide metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor 100 of this embodiment (also referred to as this transistor 100), the source regions included in the second cell 2 are cancelled, which is equivalent to improving the continuous source region in the prior art to a discontinuous source region. This enables the channel density to be reduced, the short - circuit current density to be decreased, the short - circuit tolerance to be enhanced, and the short - circuit time to be increased, while the size of the silicon carbide metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor 100 remains unchanged. A Schottky contact is formed on the epitaxial layer between the third deep well region 21 and the fourth deep well region 22 in this transistor 100, and the interval between the third deep well region 21 and the fourth deep well region 22 with the Schottky contact is smaller than the interval between the first deep well region 11 and the second deep well region 12 without the Schottky contact.
