Abstract
A semiconductor component including a semiconductor substrate having a main electrode and a control electrode. The main electrode includes a groove in which is inserted a U-shaped insulation body. The control electrode is disposed in the groove and is insulated from the main electrode by the insulation body. A spring is provided in the groove between the control electrode and the insulation body and presses the control electrode against the semiconductor substrate. In this way, the control electrode is displaceable with respect to the insulation body in a direction perpendicular to the main surface of the semiconductor substrate.
