A semiconductor component includes a semiconductor body having a first side, a second side, an edge delimiting the semiconductor body in a lateral direction, an inner region and an edge region. A first semiconductor zone of a first conduction type is arranged in the inner region and in the edge region. A second semiconductor zone of a second conduction type is arranged in the inner region and adjacent to the first semiconductor zone. A trench is arranged in the edge region and has first and second sidewalls and a bottom, and extends into the semiconductor body. A doped first sidewall zone of the second conduction type is adjacent to the first sidewall of the trench. A doped second sidewall zone of the second conduction type is adjacent to the second sidewall of the trench. A doped bottom zone of the second conduction type is adjacent to the bottom of the trench. Doping concentrations of the sidewall zones are lower than a doping concentration of the bottom zone. |
