Abstract
In order to produce a power semiconductor for operation at high blocking voltages, there is produced on a lightly doped layer having a doping of a first charge carrier type a medium-doped layer of the same charge carrier type. A highly doped layer is produced at that side of the medium-doped layer which is remote from the lightly doped layer, of which highly doped layer a part with high doping that remains in the finished semiconductor forms a second stop layer, wherein the doping of the highly doped layer is higher than the doping of the medium-doped layer. An electrode is subsequently indiffused into the highly doped layer. The part with low doping that remains in the finished semiconductor forms the drift layer and the remaining medium-doped part forms the first stop layer.
