Abstract
A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor part, first and second electrodes. The semiconductor part is provided between the first and second electrodes. A method of manufacturing the device includes forming the first electrode covering a back surface of a wafer after the second electrode is formed on a front surface of the wafer; forming a first groove by selectively removing the first electrode; and dividing the wafer by forming a second groove at the front surface side. The wafer includes a region to be the semiconductor part; and the first and second grooves are provided along a periphery of the region. The first groove is in communication with the first groove. The second groove has a width in a direction along the front surface of the wafer, the width of the first groove being narrower than a width of the first groove in the same direction.
