A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor body with a front-sided surface. An active cell region with a semiconductor device structure and an edge region surrounding the active cell region are arranged in the semiconductor body. The front-sided surface of the semiconductor body includes a passivation layer over the edge region and over the active cell region. The passivation layer includes a semiconducting insulation layer of a semiconducting material, the bandgap of which is greater than the bandgap of the material of the semiconductor body.
