Abstract
A semiconductor device includes an upper electrode; a lower electrode; a substrate positioned between the upper electrode and the lower electrode; a buried electrode part positioned between the substrate and the upper electrode, the buried electrode part including a gate electrode; and a silicon layer positioned between the substrate and the upper electrode. The silicon layer includes a mesa part next to the buried electrode part, a first region positioned between the mesa part and the substrate, and a second region positioned between the buried electrode part and the substrate. An energy level density of the first region is greater than an energy level density of the second region.
