Abstract

A semiconductor device according to the present invention includes a semiconductor layer having a trench, a first insulating film formed along an inner surface of the trench, and an upper electrode and a lower electrode embedded in the trench via the first insulating film and disposed above and below a second insulating film. An electric field relaxation portion that relaxes an electric field arising between the upper electrode and the semiconductor layer is provided between a side surface of the trench and a lower end portion of the upper electrode.
