Abstract

Provided are a semiconductor device, a method of manufacturing the same, and a method of forming a uniform doping concentration of each semiconductor device when manufacturing a plurality of semiconductor devices. When a concentration balance is disrupted due to an increase in doping region size, doping concentration is still controllable by using ion blocking patterns to provide a semiconductor device with uniform doping concentration and a higher breakdown voltage obtainable as a result of such doping.
