US Patent 11545551 Semiconductor device and semiconductor device manufacturing method

A semiconductor device in which variations in characteristics, deterioration of elements, and abnormality in shape are inhibited is provided. The semiconductor device includes a first region including a plurality of elements and a second region including a plurality of dummy elements. The second region is provided in an outer edge of the first region, and the element and the dummy element each include an oxide semiconductor. The element and the dummy element have the same structure, and a structure body included in the element and a structure body included in the dummy element are formed with the same material and provided in the same layer. The oxide semiconductor includes In, an element M (M is Al, Ga, Y, or Sn), and Zn.
