Abstract

The present invention provides a semiconductor device, a first drift layer (11) forms on a drain layer (10), the both are first electric conduction type. The second drift layers (19, 33) of the first electric conduction type and RESURF layers (18) are formed on the first drift layer (11) and periodically arranged in a direction perpendicular to the direction of depth. The RESURF layer (18) forms a depletion layer in the second drift layer (19, 33) by a p-n junction including the second drift layer (19, 33) and RESURF layer (18). The impurity concentration in the first drift layer (11) is different from that in the second drift layer (19, 33). A base layer (12) selectively provided in the surface of the second drift layers (19, 33) and the RESURF layer (18). A source layer (13) is of electric conduction type, and selectively provided in the surface of the base layer (12). A surface of the source for connecting the base layer (12) and the source layer (13) is formed. And a gate electrode (15) is provided on the base layer (12) between the source layer (13) and the drift layer 19 with a gate insulation film.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a semiconductor device having a RESURF layer, and in particular to a technology suitable for a high-power semiconductor device. Background technique [0002] Originally, vertical power MOS transistors are well known. The on-resistance of the vertical power MOS transistor strongly depends on the resistance of the conductive layer (drift layer) portion. The resistance of this drift layer is determined by the impurity concentration in the drift layer. Meanwhile, the impurity concentration in the drift layer is an element that determines the breakdown voltage of the pn junction formed by the combination of the base layer and the drift layer. That is, there is a trade-off relationship between element breakdown voltage and on-resistance. Therefore, it is necessary to improve this trade-off relationship in order to achieve both an improvement in device withstand voltage and a reduction in on-resistance. [0003] As a techn...
