Abstract

On an EP substrate 1, an EP layer 2 having a conductivity type different from that of the EP substrate 1 is grown. With ion implantation, a well 5 having the same conductivity type as the EP layer 2 is formed, and a channel stop layer 10 is also formed. A dopant having a conductivity type different from that of the well 5 is diffused in the well 5 to form a pn junction 7 in the well 5. A plurality of cells 20 each having the diffusion layer 6 as one electrode and a rear surface 1a as the other electrode are formed as a TEG. Using the TEG, junction leakage currents from two depletion layers, a depletion layer 8 in the well and a depletion layer 4 at an interface between the EP layer 2 and the EP substrate 1, are measured.
