Abstract

See full text

Provided is a semiconductor element in which atomic interdiffusion between a semiconductor region and an electrode is suppressed and increase in the contact resistance is suppressed even in cases where the semiconductor element is exposed to high temperatures during the production processes or the like. A semiconductor element of the present invention is provided with: a semiconductor region that contains silicon; an electrode that contains aluminum; and a diffusion barrier layer that is interposed between the semiconductor region and the electrode and contains germanium. The germanium content in at least a part of the diffusion barrier layer is 4 at % or more.
