Abstract
Provided is a MOSFET which includes: a semiconductor base substrate having an n-type column region and a p-type column region, a base region and a source region, wherein a super junction structure is formed of the n-type column region and the p-type column region; a trench having side walls and a bottom; a gate electrode formed in the trench by way of a gate insulation film; a carrier compensation electrode positioned between the gate electrode and the bottom of the trench; an insulation region separating the carrier compensation electrode from the side walls and the bottom; and a source electrode electrically connected to the source region and also electrically connected to the carrier compensation electrode. According to the MOSFET of the present invention, even when an irregularity in a charge balance occurs around the gate, an irregularity in switching characteristics when the MOSFET is turned off can be decreased.
