A MOSFET capable of achieving decrease in the number of steps in a manufacturing process and improvement in integration includes an SiC wafer composed of silicon carbide and a source contact electrode arranged in contact with the SiC wafer and containing titanium, aluminum, silicon, and carbon as well as a remaining inevitable impurity. The SiC wafer includes an n+ source region having an n conductivity type and a p+ region having a p conductivity type. Both of the n+ source region and the p+ region are in contact with the source contact electrode. The source contact electrode contains aluminum and titanium in a region including an interface with the SiC wafer.
