Abstract
PURPOSE:To accelerate the spreading of a depletion layer in the vicinity of the surface and to contrive improvement of the withstand voltage for the subject semiconductor device by a method wherein, in the semiconductor device of a planar construction, two annular guard regions are formed surrounding an element region, and the depth of the outer circumferential guard region is formed shallower than that of the inner circumferential guard region. CONSTITUTION:In the case of a planar transistor consisting of a P type collector region 1, an N type base region 2 and P type emitter region, an annular first guard region 4 surrounding the base region 2 and an annular second guard region 5, surrounding the region 4, and having the shallower depth than the region 4, are provided. Insulating layers 6 and 7, which protect each junction, are coated on the surface, and metal electrodes 8, 9 and 10 are provided on each element region. As a result, when an inverted bias is applied in between the collector and the base of the transistor, a depletion layer 11 spreads out satisfactorily even in the vicinity of the surface, thereby enabling to prevent the breakdown of element due to an electric field concentration in the neighborhood of the surface.
