Abstract
In one embodiment, a semiconductor device includes a well region of a second conductivity type, a control electrode, a first main electrode and a second main electrode. The well region has a source region and a drain region of a first conductivity type selectively formed in a surface of the well region. The control electrode is configured to control a current path between the source region connected to the first main electrode and the drain region connected to the second main electrode. With respect to a reference defined as a position of the well region at an identical depth to a portion of the source region or the drain region with maximum curvature, a peak of impurity concentration distribution of the second conductivity type is in a range of 0.15 micrometers on a side of the surface of the well region and on a side opposite to the surface.
