In order to form, in a wide band gap semiconductor device, a high field resistant sealing material having a large end portion film thickness, said high field resistant sealing material corresponding to a reduced termination region having a high field intensity, and to improve accuracy and shorten time of manufacturing steps, this semiconductor device is configured as follows. At least a part of a cross-section of a high field resistant sealing material formed close to a termination region at the periphery of a semiconductor chip has a perpendicular shape at a chip outer peripheral end portion, said shape having, on the chip inner end side, a film thickness that is reduced toward the inner side. In a semiconductor device manufacturing method for providing such semiconductor device, the high field resistant sealing material is formed in a semiconductor wafer state, then, heat treatment is performed, and after dicing is performed, a chip is mounted.
