Abstract

Provided is a semiconductor device that mitigates the occurrence of cracks in a protective layer covering the vicinity of edges of a dielectric film, and mitigates the decrease in dielectric breakdown strength of the dielectric film resulting from the cracks. The semiconductor device comprises: a semiconductor substrate having a first main surface and a second main surface that are opposing each other; a dielectric film disposed on a portion of the first main surface; a first electrode layer disposed on a portion of the dielectric film; and a protective layer that covers, in a continuous fashion, the area from the edges of the first electrode layer to the outer edges of the dielectric film. The dielectric film has an electrode layer placement section on which the first electrode layer is disposed, and a protective layer-covered section that is covered by the protective layer. The thickness of the outer edges of the protective layer-covered section of the dielectric film is less than the thickness of the electrode layer placement section of the dielectric film.
