Abstract
A semiconductor device includes transistor cells with vertical channels perpendicular to a first surface of a semiconductor portion. A buried compensation structure in the semiconductor portion between the transistor cells and a second surface of the semiconductor portion parallel to the first surface includes first areas and second areas. The first and second areas are alternatingly arranged along a lateral direction parallel to the first surface. A contiguous impurity layer of a first conductivity type separates the transistor cells from the buried compensation structure.
