A nonvolatile semiconductor memory device includes a semiconductor substrate having a source, a drain, and a channel region between the source and the drain. The channel region has a first end portion near the drain, a second end portion near the source, and a middle portion between the first and second end portions. The first and second end portions having approximately same width. The memory device is electrically erased by using a hot carrier generated in the first end portion due to avalanche breakdown. The channel region includes a first channel extending from the drain and a second channel adjacent to the first channel. An impurity concentration of the second channel is higher than that of the first channel. An interface between the first and second channels is located in the middle portion between the first and second end portions.

In a silicon carbide semiconductor device, a plurality of trenches has a longitudinal direction in one direction and is arranged in a stripe pattern. Each of the trenches has first and second sidewalls extending in the longitudinal direction. The first sidewall is at a first acute angle to one of a (11-20) plane and a (1-100) plane, the second sidewall is at a second acute angle to the one of the (11-20) plane and the (1-100) plane, and the first acute angle is smaller than the second acute angle. A first conductivity type region is in contact with only the first sidewall in the first and second sidewalls of each of the trenches, and a current path is formed on only the first sidewall in the first and second sidewalls.

A semiconductor device has a semiconductor substrate including a body region, a drift region, a trench that extends from a surface of the semiconductor substrate into the drift region through the body region, and a source region located adjacent to the trench in a range exposed to the surface of the semiconductor substrate, the source region being isolated from the drift region by the body region. A specific layer is disposed on a bottom of the trench, and it has a characteristic of forming a depletion layer at a junction between the specific layer and the drift region. An insulating layer covers an upper surface of the specific layer and a sidewall of the trench. A conductive portion is formed on a part of the side wall of the trench. The conductive portion is joined to the specific layer, and reaches the surface of the semiconductor substrate.
