Abstract
Provided is a semiconductor device including: a semiconductor substrate including a bulk donor; and a first buffer region of a first conductivity type, the first buffer region being provided on a lower surface side of the semiconductor substrate and having one or more doping concentration peaks and one or more hydrogen concentration peaks in a depth direction of the semiconductor substrate, in which a doping concentration at a shallowest concentration peak, out of the doping concentration peaks of the first buffer region, closest to the lower surface of the semiconductor substrate is 50 times as high as a concentration of the bulk donor of the semiconductor substrate or lower. The doping concentration at the shallowest concentration peak may be lower than a reference carrier concentration obtained when current that is 1/10 of rated current flows between an upper surface and the lower surface of the semiconductor substrate.
