Abstract
In a pin diode, a new means for a soft recovery other than the means for the soft recovery using an anode layer with a low concentration and a local lifetime control is provided. A semiconductor device comprising a drift layer of a first conductivity type provided on a semiconductor substrate of a first conductivity type, a front-surface-side region of a second conductivity type provided on a front surface side of the drift layer, an insulating-film layer provided on a front surface side of the front-surface-side region with a thickness thinner than a natural oxide film, and a metal layer provided on a front surface side of the insulating-film layer is provided.
