Abstract
A silicon carbide semiconductor device includes: a pair of first well regions separated by distance Win surface layer portions of a silicon carbide drift layer and having p-type impurity concentration higher than n-type impurity concentration of the silicon carbide drift layer; a pair of second well regions provided adjacent to bottom faces of the first well regions, separated by distance Wlarger than the distance Wby 0.8 μm or more, and having p-type impurity concentration higher than n-type impurity concentration of the silicon carbide drift layer from 1.1 times to 4.2 times lower than the first well regions; and a highly concentrated JFET region provided between the pair of first well regions and between the pair of second well regions and having n-type impurity concentration higher than that of the silicon carbide drift layer and lower than p-type impurity concentration or the second well regions.
