Abstract
A semiconductor device includes at least one ohmic contact region between a semiconductor substrate of the semiconductor device and an electrically conductive structure arranged adjacent to the semiconductor substrate. Further, the semiconductor device includes at least one Schottky contact region between the semiconductor substrate of the semiconductor device and the electrically conductive structure. The at least one ohmic contact region is arranged adjacent to the at least one Schottky contact region. The semiconductor substrate includes a first doping layer arranged adjacent to the electrically conductive structure. An average doping concentration of the surface region of the first doping layer in an area of the at least one ohmic contact region differs from an average doping concentration of the surface region of the first doping layer in an area of the at least one Schottky contact region by less than 10%.
