Abstract
A semiconductor device includes trench structures that extend from a first surface into a semiconductor body. The trench structures include a gate structure and a contact structure that extends through the gate structure, respectively. Transistor mesas are between the trench structures. Each transistor mesa includes a body zone forming a first pn junction with a drift structure and a second pn junction with a source zone. Diode regions directly adjoin one of the contact structures form a third pn junction with the drift structure, respectively.
