Abstract:
A semiconductor device includes a first cell and a second cell. Each of the first cell and the second cell includes a first silicon carbide semiconductor layer including a first region and a second region provided in the first region, a second silicon carbide semiconductor layer provided on and in contact with the first silicon carbide semiconductor layer, a first ohmic electrode in ohmic contact with the second region, and an insulating film provided on the second silicon carbide semiconductor layer. The first cell includes a gate electrode, and the second cell includes no electrode configured to control the electric potential of the second silicon carbide semiconductor layer independently of the electric potential of the first ohmic electrode.
