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.

An SiC semiconductor device has a p type region including a low concentration region and a high concentration region filled in a trench formed in a cell region. A p type column is provided by the low concentration region, and a p+ type deep layer is provided by the high concentration region. Thus, since a SJ structure can be made by the p type column and the n type column provided by the n type drift layer, an on-state resistance can be reduced. As a drain potential can be blocked by the p+ type deep layer, at turnoff, an electric field applied to the gate insulation film can be alleviated and thus breakage of the gate insulation film can be restricted. Therefore, the SiC semiconductor device can realize the reduction of the on-state resistance and the restriction of breakage of the gate insulation film.
