1. A semiconductor device comprising:

  • a semiconductor layer of a first conductive type;

    an element isolation insulation film formed on a front surface of said semiconductor layer;

    a body layer of the first conductive type formed on the front surface of said semiconductor layer near one end of said element isolation insulation film;

    a drain layer of a second conductive type formed on the front surface of said semiconductor layer near other end of said element isolation insulation film;

    a source layer of the second conductive type formed on a front surface of said body layer;

    a gate insulation film formed on said body layer;

    a gate electrode extending from on said element isolation insulation film onto said body layer with said gate insulation film being interposed therebetween; and

    a drift layer expanding in said semiconductor layer from under said drain layer to under said body layer that is under said source layer,wherein said drift layer is shallower immediately under said drain layer than under said element isolation insulation film, and gradually becomes shallower from under said element isolation insulation film to said body layer to be in contact with a bottom of said body layer, and in a sectional view of the semiconductor device, the drift layer has a depth profile that is curved to have a peak under the element isolation insulation film and is not flat under the element isolation insulation film,wherein said drift layer under said drain layer is superposed with other drift layer next thereto.
