Abstract
A semiconductor device has an alternating conductivity type layer that improves the tradeoff relation between the ON-resistance and the breakdown voltage and a method of manufacturing such a semiconductor device. The alternating conductivity type layer is formed of n-type drift regions and p-type partition regions alternately arranged with each other. At least the n-type drift regions or p-type partition regions are formed by ion implantation under an acceleration voltage changed continuously. The p-type partition regions or n-type drift regions are formed by epitaxial growth or by diffusing impurities from the surface of a substrate or a layer for the layer.
