Abstract
An object of the present disclosure is to suppress decrease in withstand voltage and increase in ON voltage and to increase body diode current. An SiC-MOSFET includes: a source region formed on a surface layer of a base region; a gate electrode facing a channel region which is a region of the base region sandwiched between a drift layer and the source region via a gate insulating film; a source electrode having electrically contact with the source region; and a plurality of first embedded regions of a second conductivity type formed adjacent to a lower surface of the base region. The plurality of first embedded regions are formed immediately below at least both end portions of the base region, and three or more first embedded regions are formed to be separated from each other.
