Abstract

This semiconductor device that is provided with a vertical semiconductor element has a trench gate structure and a dummy gate structure. The trench gate structure has a first trench (7) which is formed to reach a first conductivity-type region (2b) in a super junction structure by penetrating a first impurity region (5) and a base region (4). The dummy gate structure has a second trench (10), which reaches the super junction structure by penetrating the base region (4), and is formed deeper than the first trench (7).

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This disclosure is based on Japanese Patent Application No. 2011-210676 filed on September 27, 2011 and Japanese Patent Application No. 2012-161523 filed on July 20, 2012, the disclosures of which are incorporated herein by reference . technical field [0003] The present disclosure relates to semiconductor devices including vertical semiconductor elements. Background technique [0004] In semiconductor devices including vertical MOS transistors, holes are usually extracted from the p-type base region. However, in case the voltage drop in the extraction path is too large, the avalanche current flows towards n + Type source region flow to operate the parasitic bipolar transistor. Therefore, the avalanche resistance is reduced. In order to improve the avalanche resistance, it is necessary not to operate by n + type source region, p-type base region and n - A parasitic bipolar transistor formed by a type drift layer...
