    Abstract: To provide a technique capable of improving performance and reliability of a semiconductor device. An n?-type epitaxial layer (12) is formed on an n-type semiconductor substrate (11), and a p+-type body region (14), n+-type current spreading regions (16, 17), and a trench. TR are formed in the n?-type epitaxial layer (12). A bottom surface B1 of the trench TR is located in the p+-type body region (14), a side surface S1 of the trench TR is in contact with the n+-type current spreading region (17), and a side surface S2 of the trench TR is in contact with the n+-type current spreading region (16). Here, a ratio of silicon is higher than a ratio of carbon in an upper surface T1 of the n?-type epitaxial layer (12), and the bottom surface B1, the side surface S1, and the side surface 32 of the trench.
