A semiconductor device in which an IGBT region and a diode region are formed on one semiconductor substrate is disclosed. The IGBT region includes: a body layer of a first conductivity type that is formed on a front surface of the semiconductor substrate; a body contact layer of the first conductivity type that is partially formed on a front surface of the body layer and has a higher impurity concentration of the first conductivity type than the body layer; an emitter layer of a second conductivity type that is partially formed on the front surface of the body layer; a drift layer; a collector layer; and a gate electrode. In the semiconductor device, a part of the body contact layer placed at a long distance from the diode region is made larger than a part of the body contact layer placed at a short distance from the diode region.

There is known a semiconductor device in which an IGBT structure is provided in an IGBT area and a diode structure is provided in a diode area, the IGBT area and the diode area are both located within a same substrate, and the IGBT area is adjacent to the diode area. In this type of semiconductor device, a phenomenon that carriers accumulated within the IGBT area flow into the diode area when the IGBT structure is turned off. In order to prevent this phenomenon, a region of shortening lifetime of carriers is provided at least in a sub-area that is within said IGBT area and adjacent to said diode area. In the sub-area, emitter of IGBT structure is omitted.

A diode region and an IGBT region are formed in a semiconductor layer of a semiconductor device. A lifetime controlled region is formed in the semiconductor layer. In a plan view, the lifetime controlled region has a first lifetime controlled region located in the diode region and a second lifetime controlled region located in a part of the IGBT region. The second lifetime controlled region extends from a boundary of the diode region and the IGBT region toward the IGBT region. In the plan view, a tip of the second lifetime controlled region is located in a forming area of the body region in the IGBT region.

When a semiconductor substrate of a semiconductor device is viewed from above, an isolation region, an IGBT region, and a diode region are all formed adjacent to each other. A deep region that is connected to a body region and an anode region is formed in the isolation region. A drift region is formed extending across the isolation region, the IGBT region, and the diode region, inside the semiconductor substrate. A collector region that extends across the isolation region, the IGBT region and the diode region, and a cathode region positioned in the diode region, are formed in a region exposed on a lower surface of the semiconductor substrate. A boundary between the collector region and the cathode region is in the diode region, in a cross-section that cuts across a boundary between the isolation region and the diode region, and divides the isolation region and the diode region. The collector region formed in the isolation region has a higher dopant impurity concentration than the collector region in the IGBT region.

When a semiconductor substrate of a semiconductor device is viewed from above, an isolation region, an IGBT region, and a diode region are all formed adjacent to each other. A deep region that is connected to a body region and an anode region is formed in the isolation region. A drift region is formed extending across the isolation region, the IGBT region, and the diode region, inside the semiconductor substrate. A collector region that extends across the isolation region, the IGBT region and the diode region, and a cathode region positioned in the diode region, are formed in a region exposed on a lower surface of the semiconductor substrate. A boundary between the collector region and the cathode region is in the diode region, in a cross-section that cuts across a boundary between the isolation region and the diode region, and divides the isolation region and the diode region. The collector region formed in the isolation region has a higher dopant impurity concentration than the collector region in the IGBT region.
