Semiconductor field effect power switching device

摘要

A semiconductor device having a semiconductor body, a source metallization arranged on a first surface of the semiconductor body and a trench including a first trench portion and a second trench portion and extending from the first surface into the semiconductor body is provided. The semiconductor body further includes a pn-junction formed between a first semiconductor region and a second semiconductor region. The first trench portion includes an insulated gate electrode which is connected to the source metallization, and the second trench portion includes a conductive plug which is connected to the source metallization and to the second semiconductor region.
