Abstract:
An embodiment of a semiconductor device includes a SiC semiconductor body region having a body region of a first conductivity type, a drift zone of a second conductivity type, and a compensation structure of the first conductivity type. The compensation structure and a drift zone section of the drift zone form a super junction structure. The compensation structure adjoins the body region and is positioned entirely below the body region in a vertical direction perpendicular to a surface of the SiC semiconductor body. The compensation structure includes a first compensation sub-structure and a second compensation sub-structure. The first compensation sub-structure and the second compensation sub-structure are arranged above one another in the vertical direction. A width of the compensation structure changes along the vertical direction.

Claim (Index 17):
The semiconductor device of  claim 12 , wherein the width increases continuously or increases step-wise in different sections along the vertical direction.
