1. A semiconductor device comprising:
- a metal substrate;
plural active regions selectively disposed on a main surface of said metal substrate; and
a conductor layer being disposed above said main surface of said metal substrate and making electrical connection with said plural active regions, said plural active regions being electrically independent from one another in a direction horizontal to said main surface of said metal substrate and using said conductor layer and said metal substrate as a main electrode, so that a main current flows in a direction perpendicular to said main surface of said metal substrate in each of said plural active regions.

Abstract
A semiconductor device capable of reducing manufacturing cost and on-state resistance is provided by selectively disposing a plurality of active regions (AR) on a main surface of a stainless steel substrate (1) and disposing a trench gate (7) so as to bury the area between the active regions (AR). The active regions (AR) have a multilayer structure that is made up of a drain layer (2) containing antimony (Sb) as an n-type impurity in a relatively high concentration (n+), a polysilicon layer (3) overlying the drain layer (2) and containing a p-type impurity, and a source layer (4) overlying the polysilicon layer (3) and containing an n-type impurity in a relatively high concentration (n+).
