Abstract
Provided is a device with improved reverse-recovery immunity of a diode element. The device includes: a first conductivity-type drift layer; a second conductivity-type anode region provided in an upper portion of the drift layer; a second conductivity-type extraction region in contact with and surrounding the anode region; and a second conductivity-type field limiting ring region surrounding and separated from the extraction region at the upper portion of the drift layer, wherein the extraction region has a greater depth than the anode region and the field limiting ring region.
