Semiconductor arrangement with a pn transition and method for the production of a semiconductor arrangement

摘要

A semiconductor system (200), particularly a diode, having a p-n junction is proposed, that is formed as a chip having an edge area, which includes a first layer (2) of a first conductivity type and a second layer (1, 3) of a second conductivity type; the second layer (1, 3) including at least two sublayers (1, 3); both sublayers (1, 3) forming a p-n junction with the first layer (2); the p-n junction of the first layer (2) with the first sublayer (3) being provided exclusively in the interior of the chip, and the p-n junction between the first layer (2) and the second sublayer (1) being provided in the edge area of the chip; for each cross-section of the chip area parallel to the chip plane, the first sublayer (3) corresponding only to a part of such a cross-section.
