Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2018206165A1] Vertical power transistor (100, 200) with at least one epitaxial layer (103, 203), which comprises a first semiconductor material, which is doped with first charge carriers, and a plurality of trenches (107, 207), wherein the trenches (107, 207) extend from a surface of the epitaxial layer (103, 203) into the interior of the epitaxial layer (103, 203), characterized in that each trench (107, 207) has a region (108, 208) which extends from the trench base up to a specific height, wherein the region (108, 208) is at least partially filled with a second semiconductor material (109, 209) which is doped with second charge carriers, and the region (108, 208) is electrically connected to a source region (105, 205), wherein the first charge carriers and the second charge carriers are different.
