Abstract
A semiconductor apparatus includes a drain region of a first-conductivity type, a drain electrode electrically coupled to the drain region, and a semiconductor layer of the first-conductivity type formed onto the drain region and having a first impurity concentration. The semiconductor apparatus further includes: a source region of the first-conductivity type formed on the semiconductor layer and having a second impurity concentration; a first source electrode electrically coupled to the source region; and a gate electrode formed via an insulating layer. The one end of the gate electrode is in a depth of the source region, and the other end is in a depth of the semiconductor layer or the drain region. A second source electrode is provided in the semiconductor layer under the gate electrodes via an insulating layer. A second spacing between the second source electrodes is larger than a first spacing between the gate electrodes.
