Abstract

In one aspect, a semiconductor device includes a semiconductor substrate; and a transistor element including a parallel structure of a first-conductivity-type drift region and a second-conductivity-type column region, and a second-conductivity-type base region, the transistor element being formed on the semiconductor substrate. An outer peripheral region located outside an element forming region has a parallel structure of a first-conductivity-type drift region and a second-conductivity-type column region, and a second-conductivity-type annular diffusion region which is formed at a side of the base region and which is spaced apart from the base region. An innermost end and a neighboring portion thereof of the annular diffusion region are located on the column region, and an outermost end of the annular diffusion region is located outside an outermost peripheral column region. A field insulating film that covers the annular diffusion region is stacked on the semiconductor layer in the outer peripheral region.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application is based on the benefit of priority of Japanese Patent Application No. 2010-57886 filed on March 15, 2010 and Japanese Patent Application No. 2010-280431 filed on December 16, 2010, the entire disclosures of which are incorporated herein by reference . Background technique [0003] The present invention relates to a semiconductor device having a so-called superjunction structure. [0004] As a typical semiconductor device realizing a high breakdown voltage and a large current capacity, there is a power MOSFET (Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor). This type of power MOSFET allows current to flow between a pair of electrodes formed on both surfaces of a substrate. It is called a vertical power MOSFET. Vertical power MOSFETs are widely used as switching devices and the like with low on-resistance. [0005] Depending on the intended application, the vertical power MOSFET is designed to hav...
