Patent attributes
A semiconductor device includes a p-type semiconductor substrate; an n-type drift layer on the substrate; an n-type drain region in contact with the drift layer to be provided on the semiconductor substrate at a center of the drift layer; a p-type gate region on the substrate in an outer side of the drift layer, the gate region including U-shaped first and second concave patterns in a planar pattern, each having entrances of the U-shapes located with equal distances from the drain region, the bottoms of the U-shapes protruding toward an outer side of the planar pattern; n-type source regions in an inner side of the first concave patterns, each of the source regions contacts with the drift layer and the gate region; and n-type surge-current guiding-regions in an inner side of the second concave patterns, each of the surge-current guiding-regions contacts with the drift layer and the gate region.
