Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2020239488A1] The invention relates to a transistor cell (100), comprising a semiconductor substrate (101), which has a front side and a rear side, wherein: the front side is opposite the rear side; an epitaxial layer (102) is arranged on the front side; channel regions (103) are arranged on the epitaxial layer (102) and source regions (104) are arranged on the channel regions (103); a trench (105) and field shielding regions (108) extend from the front side of the semiconductor substrate (101) into the epitaxial layer (102); the field shielding regions (108) are each arranged at a lateral distance from the trench (105), and the trench (105) has a smaller depth than the field shielding regions (108), characterized in that an implanted expansion region (112) having a certain thickness is arranged below the trench (105).
