发明名称 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.
