Abstract
A power semiconductor diode includes a semiconductor body having first and second main surfaces opposite to each other along a vertical direction. A drift region of a second conductivity type is arranged between an anode region of a first conductivity type and the second main surface. A field stop region of the second conductivity type is arranged between the drift region and the second main surface. A dopant concentration profile of the field stop region along the vertical direction includes a maximum peak. An injection region of the first conductivity type is arranged between the field stop region and the second main surface, with a pn-junction between the injection and field stop regions. A cathode contact region of the second conductivity type is arranged between the field stop region and the second main surface. A first vertical distance between the pn-junction and the maximum peak ranges from 200 nm to 1500 nm.
