Abstract
A semiconductor device includes n-type drift layer, n-type current spreading layer having higher impurity concentration than the drift layer, p-type base region provided on top surface, p-type gate-bottom protection region located in the current spreading layer, having first bottom edge portion formed of curved surface, p-type base-bottom embedded region in contact with bottom surface of the base region, having second bottom edge portion formed of curved surface on side surface facing the gate-bottom protection region, being separated from the gate-bottom protection region, and insulated gate electrode structure provided in trench penetrating through the base region to reach the gate-bottom protection region. Bottom surface of the base-bottom embedded region is deeper than bottom surface of the gate-bottom protection region, and minimum value of curvature radius of the first bottom edge portion is larger than minimum value of curvature radius of the second bottom edge portion.
