摘要:
A method for treating an oxygen-containing semiconductor wafer, and semiconductor component. One embodiment provides a first side, a second side opposite the first side. A first semiconductor region adjoins the first side. A second semiconductor region adjoins the second side. The second side of the wafer is irridated such that lattice vacancies arise in the second semiconductor region. A first thermal process is carried out the duration of which is chosen such that oxygen agglomerates form in the second semiconductor region and that lattice vacancies diffuse from the first semiconductor region into the second semiconductor region.

A contact configuration has an ohmic contact between a metalization layer and a semiconductor body of monocrystalline semiconductor material. An amorphous semiconductor layer is formed between the metalization layer and the monocrystalline semiconductor body. The layer is formed of the same semiconductor material as the body. The contact configuration is either produced by applying amorphous semiconductor material on the semiconductor body (e.g., sputtering, vapor deposition, glow discharge) or by damage formation in the semiconductor body.

A power semiconductor device has a semiconductor body which includes an active area and a peripheral area which both define a horizontal main surface of the semiconductor body. The semiconductor body further includes an n-type semiconductor layer, a pn junction and at least one trench. The n-type semiconductor layer is embedded in the semiconductor body and extends to the main surface in the peripheral area. The pn junction is arranged between the n-type semiconductor layer and the main surface in the active area. The at least one trench extends in the peripheral area from the main surface into the n-type semiconductor layer and includes a dielectric layer with fixed negative charges. In the vertical direction, the dielectric layer is arranged both below and above the pn junction. The dielectric layer with fixed negative charges typically has a negative net charge. Further, a method for forming a semiconductor device is provided.

摘要:
A method for producing a semiconductor is disclosed. One embodiment provides a p-doped semiconductor body having a first side and a second side. An n-doped zone is formed in the semiconductor body by implantation of protons into the semiconductor body via the first side down to a specific depth of the semiconductor body and by subsequent heating at least of the proton-implanted region of the semiconductor body. A pn junction arises in the semiconductor body. The second side of the semiconductor body is removed at least as far as a space charge zone spanned at the pn junction.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a metal-semiconductor contact comprising a semiconductor layer and comprising a metallization applied to the semiconductor layer, a high dopant concentration being introduced into the semiconductor layer such that a non-reactive metal-semiconductor contact is formed between the metallization and the semiconductor layer. The metallization and/or the semiconductor layer are formed in such a way that only a fraction of the introduced doping concentration is electrically active, and a semiconductor layer doped only with this fraction of the doping concentration only forms a Schottky contact when contact is made with the metallization. Furthermore, the invention relates to a semiconductor component comprising a drain zone, body zones embedded therein and source zones again embedded therein. The semiconductor component has metal-semiconductor contacts in which the contacts made contact only with the source zones but not with the body zones.
