摘要:
A transistor has a cell array with two or more transistor cells, a temperature sensor, which is integrated in the cell array or is adjacent to the cell array, and an isolation structure. The isolation structure isolates the temperature sensor from the cell array, and has an isolation trench, which is arranged between the cell array and the temperature sensor. The distance between the temperature sensor and the active transistor cell that is closest to the temperature sensor corresponds approximately to the pitch between active transistor cells within the cell array.

A semiconductor having an optimized insulation structure which is simple and inexpensive to produce and can be made smaller than LOCOS insulation structures is disclosed. An implantation mask on a surface of a semiconductor substrate is used to implant elements into the semiconductor substrate, which elements, on thermal activation, form an insulation region together with the further elements of the semiconductor substrate. The thermal activation is effected by means of laser irradiation, during which the semiconductor substrate is briefly melted and then recrystallizes during the subsequent cooling, so that the implanted elements form the insulation region together with the further elements of the semiconductor substrate.

One embodiment of the invention relates to a field effect trench transistor with a multiplicity of transistor cells that are arranged like an array and whose gate electrodes are arranged in active trenches formed in a semiconductor body. Inactive trenches are arranged in the array of the transistor cells, there being no gate electrodes situated in said inactive trenches, and a series of polysilicon diodes are integrated in one or more of the inactive trenches which diodes, for protection against damage to the gate oxide through ESD pulses, are contact-connected to a source metallization at one of their ends and to a gate metallization at their other end, and/or alternatively or additionally one or more polysilicon zener diodes connected in series is or are integrated in the inactive trench or trenches and contact-connected to the gate metallization by one of its or their ends and to drain potential by its or their other end.
