Abstract

A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor part, an first electrode, a control electrode and second electrodes. The control electrode and the second electrodes are provided between the semiconductor part and the first electrode, and provided inside trenches, respectively. The second electrodes include first to third ones. The first and second ones of the second electrodes are adjacent to each other with a portion of the semiconductor part interposed. The second electrodes each are electrically isolated from the semiconductor part by a insulating film including first and second insulating portions adjacent to each other. The first insulating portion has a first thickness. The second insulating portion has a second thickness thinner than the first thickness. The first insulating portion is provided between the first and second ones of the second electrodes. The second insulating portion is provided between the first and third ones of the second electrodes.
