    Abstract: A transistor cell includes a drift region, a source region, a body region, and a drain region that is laterally spaced apart from the source region. A gate electrode is adjacent the body region. A field electrode is arranged in the drift region. A source electrode is connected to the source region and the body region, and a drain electrode is connected to the drain region. An avalanche bypass structure is coupled between the source electrode and the drain electrode and includes a first semiconductor layer of the first doping type, a second semiconductor layer of the first doping type, and a pn-junction arranged between the first semiconductor layer and the source electrode. The second semiconductor layer has a higher doping concentration than the first semiconductor layer and is arranged between the second semiconductor layer and the drift region. The drain electrode is electrically connected to the second semiconductor layer.

    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor body including a first trench extending into the semiconductor body from a first surface and a diode including an anode region and a cathode region. One of the anode region and the cathode region is at least partly arranged in the first trench. The other one of the anode region and the cathode region includes a first semiconductor region directly adjoining the one of the anode region and the cathode region from outside of the first trench, thereby constituting a pn junction. The semiconductor device further includes a conducting path through a sidewall of the first trench.

    Abstract: A controllable semiconductor component is produced by providing a semiconductor body with a top side and a bottom side, and forming a first trench protruding from the top side into the semiconductor body and a second trench protruding from the top side into the semiconductor body. In a common process, an oxide layer is formed in the first trench and in the second trench such that the oxide layer fills the first trench and electrically insulates a surface of the second trench. The oxide layer is removed from the first trench completely or at least partly such that the semiconductor body has an exposed first surface area arranged in the first trench. An electrically conductive material is filled into the second trench, and the semiconductor body and the oxide layer are partially removed such that the electrically conductive material has an exposed second surface area at the bottom side.
