Abstract:
A semiconductor device includes a cell region having at least one device cell, wherein the at least one device cell includes a first device region of a first conductivity type. The semiconductor device further includes a drift region of a second conductivity type adjoining the first device region of the at least one device cell, a doped region of the first conductivity type adjoining the drift region, and charge carrier lifetime reduction means configured to reduce a charge carrier lifetime in the doped region of the first conductivity type.
Abstract:
A semiconductor device is produced by providing a semiconductor substrate, forming an epitaxial layer on the semiconductor substrate, and introducing dopant atoms of a first doping type and dopant atoms of a second doping type into the epitaxial layer.
