Abstract: An airbag apparatus includes an airbag housed deployably, and an instrument panel covering the airbag in a deploying direction and forming a design surface of a vehicle cabin. The instrument panel includes, on the design surface facing the vehicle cabin, a character line including continuous protrusions toward the deploying direction. The instrument panel includes, on a surface facing the airbag along the character line, a tear line that ruptures at the time of deployment of the airbag.

Abstract: A semiconductor device having a super junction structure includes: multiple first columns extending in a current flowing direction; and multiple second columns extending in the current flowing direction. The first and second columns are alternately arranged in an alternating direction. Each first column provides a drift layer. The first and second columns have a boundary therebetween, from which a depletion layer expands in case of an off-state. At least one of the first columns and the second columns have an impurity dose, which is inhomogeneous by location with respect to the alternating direction.

Abstract: A manufacturing method of a semiconductor device includes: forming multiple trenches on a semiconductor substrate; forming a second conductive type semiconductor film in each trench to provide a first column with the substrate between two trenches and a second column with the second conductive type semiconductor film in the trench, the first and second columns alternately repeated along with a predetermined direction; thinning a second side of the substrate; and increasing an impurity concentration in a thinned second side so that a first conductive type layer is provided. The impurity concentration of the first conductive type layer is higher than the first column. The first column provides a drift layer so that a vertical type first-conductive-type channel transistor is formed.
