Abstract
A semiconductor arrangement is disclosed. One embodiment includes a first semiconductor layer including a first and second component zone that form a pn-junction or a Schottky-junction. A second semiconductor layer includes a drift control zone adjacent to the second component zone. A dielectric layer separates the first semiconductor layer from the second semiconductor layer. A rectifying element is coupled between the drift control zone and the second component zone.
