A method includes forming a layer stack with a plurality of first layers of a first doping type and a plurality of second layers of a second doping type complementary to the first doping type on top of a carrier. Forming the layer stack includes forming a plurality of epitaxial layers on the carrier. Forming each of the plurality of epitaxial layers includes depositing a layer of semiconductor material, forming at least two first implantation regions of one of a first type or a second type at different vertical positions of the respective layer of semiconductor material, and forming at least one second implantation region of a type that is complementary to the type of the first implantation regions, the first implantation regions and the second implantation regions being arranged alternatingly.
