Abstract
A semiconductor device includes an insulated gate bipolar transistor region having a base layer of a second conductivity type provided in a surface layer of the semiconductor substrate on a first main surface side, an emitter layer of a first conductivity type having an impurity concentration higher than that of a drift layer selectively provided in the surface layer of the base layer on the first main surface side, a plurality of gate electrodes facing the emitter layer, the base layer, and the drift layer via gate insulating films, a counter-doped layer, having an impurity concentration of the second conductivity type higher than that of the base layer and an impurity concentration of the first conductivity type higher than that of the drift layer, and a collector layer of the second conductivity type provided in the surface layer of the semiconductor substrate on a second main surface side.
