Abstract:
A semiconductor body having a drift region layer, a body region layer adjoining the drift region layer, and a source region layer adjoining the body region layer and forming a first surface of the semiconductor body is provided. At least two trenches extend from the first surface of the semiconductor body through the source region layer and the body region layer. In each of the trenches a gate electrode and a gate dielectric are formed. Diode regions are directly adjacent to each of the at least two trenches. The diode regions extend from the first surface of the semiconductor body through the source region layer and the body region layer. The diode regions include a first region and a second region. A doping concentration in the diode regions varies such that a doping concentration is higher near the first surface than at the bottom of the trench.

Claim (Index 5):
The method of  claim 1 , further comprising:\n forming an insulation layer on the first surface; forming a first contact opening in the insulation layer above each diode region and each source region; and forming a source electrode that is electrically connected to the source region and the diode region in each first contact opening.
