SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE

P-type low-concentration regions face bottoms of trenches and extend in a longitudinal direction (first direction) of the trenches. The p-type low-concentration regions are adjacent to one another in a latitudinal direction (second direction) of the trenches and connected at predetermined locations by p-type low-concentration connecting portions that are scattered along the first direction and separated from one another by an interval of at least 3 μm. The p-type low-concentration regions and the p-type low-concentration connecting portions have an impurity concentration in a range of 3×1017/cm3 to 9×1017/cm3. A depth from the bottoms of the trenches to lower surfaces of the p-type low-concentration regions is in a range of 0.7 μm to 1.1 μm. Between the bottom of each of the trenches and a respective one of the p-type low-concentration regions, a p+-type high-concentration region is provided. Each p+-type high-concentration region has an impurity concentration that is at least 2 times the impurity concentration of the p-type low-concentration regions.
