According to one embodiment, a method for the production of a stop zone in a doped zone of a semiconductor body comprises irradiating the semiconductor body with particle radiation in order to produce defects in a crystal lattice of the semiconductor body. The semiconductor body is exposed to an environment containing dopant atoms, during which dopant atoms are indiffused into the semiconductor body at an elevated temperature.

A method for producing a buried stop zone in a semiconductor body and a semiconductor component having a stop zone, has the method steps of: providing a semiconductor body having a first and a second side and a basic doping of a first conduction type, irradiating the semiconductor body via one of the sides with protons, as a result of which protons are introduced into a first region of the semiconductor body situated at a distance from the irradiation side, carrying out a thermal process in which the semiconductor body is heated to a predetermined temperature for a predetermined time duration, the temperature and the duration being chosen such that hydrogen-induced donors are generated both in the first region and in a second region adjacent to the first region in the direction of the irradiation side.

A vertical semiconductor device includes a semiconductor body, and first and second contacts on opposite sides of the semiconductor body. A plurality of regions are formed in the semiconductor body including, in a direction from the first contact to the second contact, a first region of a first conductivity type, a second region of a second conductivity type; and a third region of the first conductivity type. The third region is electrically connected to the second contact. A semiconductor zone of the second conductivity type and increased doping density is arranged in the second region. The semiconductor zone separates a first part of the second region from a second part of the second region. The semiconductor zone has a maximum doping density exceeding about 1016 cm−3 and a thickness along the direction from the first contact to the second contact of less than about 3 μm.

A reverse conducting insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) includes a semiconductor substrate having a front side and a back side and a first conductivity region between the front and back sides. The first conductivity region includes a reduced lifetime zone, a first lifetime zone between the reduced lifetime zone and the front side, and an intermediate lifetime zone between the reduced lifetime zone and the back side. Charge carriers in the first lifetime zone have a first carrier lifetime, charge carriers in the reduced lifetime zone have a reduced carrier lifetime shorter than the first carrier lifetime, and charge carriers in the intermediate lifetime zone have an intermediate carrier lifetime shorter than the first carrier lifetime and longer than the reduced carrier lifetime.
