Abstract:
According to an embodiment of a semiconductor device, the semiconductor device includes a semiconductor body having a main surface, the semiconductor body including a drift region of monocrystalline SiC, the drift region being of a first conductivity type, and a metallization arranged at the main surface. In a cross-section which is substantially orthogonal to the main surface, the semiconductor body further includes a contact region of the monocrystalline SiC directly adjoining the drift region and the metallization, and an anode region of a semiconductor material having a lower band-gap than the monocrystalline SiC. The contact region is of a second conductivity type. The anode region is in ohmic contact with the metallization and forms a heterojunction with the drift region.

Claim (Index 4):
The semiconductor device of  claim 1 , further comprising in the vertical cross-section, a further contact region of the monocrystalline SiC directly adjoining the drift region and the metallization, the further contact region being of the second conductivity type, wherein the heterojunction extends from the contact region to the further contact region.
