Abstract
A method for manufacturing a semiconductor component includes forming first mesa and second mesa structures from a semiconductor material by etching trenches into the semiconductor material. A doped region having a multi-concentration dopant profile is formed in at least the first mesa structure and doped polysilicon is formed in the trenches. The trenches are formed in a geometric pattern. A contact having three contact types is formed, wherein a first contact type is formed to the first mesa structure, a second contact type is formed to the second mesa structure, and a third contact type is formed to the doped polysilicon in the trenches. The first contact type has electrical properties between a conventional Schottky contact and a conventional Ohmic contact without being a conventional Schottky contact or a conventional Ohmic contact, the second contact type is a Schottky contact, the third contact type is an Ohmic contract.
