Patent ID: 10224320

Abstract:
A semiconductor device according to an embodiment includes a semiconductor substrate having a first plane and a second plane, a plurality of first semiconductor areas provided on the first plane, a plurality of second semiconductor areas provided between the plurality of first semiconductor areas, a plurality of insulator regions provided between the first semiconductor areas and the second semiconductor areas, first-conductivity-type drain regions provided in the first semiconductor areas, first-conductivity-type source regions provided in the second semiconductor areas, gate electrodes, first-conductivity-type first impurity regions that are provided between the first-conductivity-type drain regions and the second plane and have a lower first-conductivity-type impurity concentration than the first-conductivity-type drain regions, and a plurality of second-conductivity-type second impurity regions provided between the first-conductivity-type source regions and the second plane. The width of at least one of the plurality of first semiconductor areas is greater than the width of the other first semiconductor areas.
