Abstract: A trench gate type MISFET and a diode are formed in a semiconductor substrate. First and second trenches are formed in the semiconductor substrate. A gate electrode is formed in the first trench through a gate insulating film. A dummy gate electrode is formed in the second trench through a dummy gate insulating film. A cathode n+-type semiconductor region and an anode p-type semiconductor region are formed in the semiconductor substrate and the second trench is formed so as to surround the n+-type semiconductor region in a planar view. A part of the anode p-type semiconductor region is formed directly below the n+-type semiconductor region, so that a PN junction is formed between the part of the anode p-type semiconductor region and the n+-type semiconductor region. Thereby a diode is formed. The dummy gate electrode is electrically coupled to one of an anode and a cathode.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device includes forming a recess over a surface of an n-type semiconductor substrate, forming a gate insulation film over an inner wall and a bottom face of the recess, embedding a gate electrode into the recess, forming a p-type base layer in the surface layer of the substrate so as to be shallower than the recess; and forming an n-type source layer in the p-type base layer so as to be shallower than the p-type base layer. The impurity profile of the p-type base layer in a thickness direction includes a second peak being located closer to a bottom face side of the substrate than the first peak and being higher than the first peak, and a third peak located between the first peak and the second peak by implanting impurity ions three times or more at ion implantation energies different from each other.

The third peak is located between the first peak and the second peak.

Abstract: Trenches are formed in a base layer and extend parallel to each other. A gate insulating film is formed on the inner wall of each of multiple trenches. A gate electrode GE is buried in each of the trenches. The source layer is formed in the base layer to a depth less than the base layer. The source layer is disposed between each of the trenches. A second conduction type high concentration layer is formed between the source layer and the trench in a plan view. The trench, the source layer, and the second conduction type high concentration are arranged in this order repetitively in a plan view. One lateral side of the trench faces the source layer and the other lateral side of the trench faces the second conduction type high concentration layer.
