Abstract
A silicon carbide semiconductor device includes a silicon carbide substrate, a first electrode, and a second electrode. The silicon carbide substrate has a first main surface, a second main surface, a first impurity region, a second impurity region, and a third impurity region. The first electrode is in contact with each of the second impurity region and the third impurity region on the first main surface. The second electrode is in contact with the first impurity region on the second main surface. The second impurity region includes a first region and a second region disposed between the first region and the second main surface and in contact with the first region. An impurity concentration of the first region is more than or equal to 6×10cm.
