Abstract: Disclosed is a high-resistance resistor based on silicon carbide. The resistor includes a semi-insulating 4H—SiC silicon carbide substrate, a silicon surface and a carbon surface of the silicon carbide substrate are provided with symmetrical atomic-thickness aluminum oxide insulating layers, thicknesses of the aluminum oxide insulating layers are 0.2 nm-2 nm, conductive metal electrodes are formed at two sides of the aluminum oxide insulating layers through evaporation, and thicknesses of the metal electrodes are 100 nm-500 nm. The present disclosure uses a high-resistance resistor based on silicon carbide that has the above structure, makes an ohmic contact electrode on a semi-insulating silicon carbide substrate, thus obtaining a resistor with a resistance of 100 T? or more, and satisfying requirements of the precision measurement industry.
