A negative buffer layer and a positive collector layer are formed on a side of one surface of a semiconductor substrate. The positive collector layer is set to have a low dose amount and set shallow so that a low injection efficiency emitter structure is realized. Break down voltage of a power device is controlled by a thickness of a drift layer. A positive base layer, a negative emitter layer and a positive base contact layer are formed on a side of the other surface of the semiconductor substrate. A negative low resistant layer reduces a junction FET effect. An emitter electrode comes into contact with the negative emitter layer and the positive base contact layer. A collector electrode comes into contact with the positive collector layer. A gate electrode is formed on a gate insulating film above a channel region on a surface portion of the positive base layer.

A sub-gate electrode is arranged to face, through a gate insulating film, a surface of a first p-type base layer which is interposed between a first n-type source layer and an n-type drift layer, and a surface of a second p-type base layer which is interposed between a second n-type source layer and the n-type drift layer and faces the first p-type base layer. A main gate electrode is arranged to face, through a gate insulating film, a surface of the second p-type base layer which is interposed between the second n-type source layer and the n-type drift layer and does not face the first p-type base layer. Three n-type MOSFETs are constructed such that one n-type channel is to be formed in the first p-type base layer and two n-type channels are to be formed in the second p-type base layer. The three channels are to be formed, so that the channel width is effectively enlarged and the current density is increased. The second p-type base layer has a length of 10 .mu.m or less in the drifting direction.
