Abstract
A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor layer having a first main surface on one side and a second main surface on the other side, a unit cell including a diode region of a first conductivity type formed in a surface layer portion of the first main surface of the semiconductor layer, a well region of a second conductivity type formed in the surface layer portion of the first main surface of the semiconductor layer along a peripheral edge of the diode region, and a first conductivity type region formed in a surface layer portion of the well region, a gate electrode layer facing the well region and the first conductivity type region through a gate insulating layer and a first main surface electrode covering the diode region and the first conductivity type region on the first main surface of the semiconductor layer, and forming a Schottky junction with the diode region and an ohmic junction with the first conductivity type region.
