Abstract
A silicon carbide substrate has at least one of a first structure and a second structure. The first structure is such that a first impurity region is in contact with a second impurity region, a third impurity region is separated from a fourth impurity region by a second drift region, and the second impurity region has a width greater than a width of the fourth impurity region in a direction parallel to a first main surface. The second structure is such that the first impurity region is separated from the second impurity region by a first drift region, the third impurity region is in contact with the fourth impurity region, and the fourth impurity region has a width greater than a width of the second impurity region in the direction parallel to the first main surface.
