Semiconductor Device with Step-Shaped Edge Termination, and Method for Manufacturing a Semiconductor Device |
摘要 |
A semiconductor body has a first side, second side, lateral edge, active area, edge termination between the active area and the lateral edge, and drift region of a first conductivity type. The edge termination includes a step formed in the semiconductor body between the first side and the lateral edge. The step includes a lateral surface extending up to the first side and a bottom surface extending up to the lateral edge. A first doping zone of a second conductivity type is formed in the semiconductor body along the lateral surface of the step and forms a pn-junction with the drift region. A second doping zone of the first conductivity type is formed in the semiconductor body at least along a part of the bottom surface of the step and extends up to the lateral edge, wherein the second doping zone is in contact with the drift region. |

1. A semiconductor device, comprising:
a semiconductor body comprising a first side, a second side, a lateral edge delimiting the semiconductor body in a lateral direction, an active area, and an edge termination arranged between the active area and the lateral edge; a drift region of a first conductivity type formed in the semiconductor body; the edge termination comprising:
a step formed in the semiconductor body between the first side of the semiconductor body and the lateral edge, the step comprising a lateral surface extending up to the first side of the semiconductor body and a bottom surface extending up to the lateral edge of the semiconductor body;a first doping zone of a second conductivity type formed in the semiconductor body along the lateral surface of the step and forming a pn-junction with the drift region; anda second doping zone of the first conductivity type formed in the semiconductor body at least along a part of the bottom surface of the step and extending up to the lateral edge of the semiconductor body, the second doping zone being in contact with the drift region.
