Abstract
A high-voltage vertical power component including a silicon substrate of a first conductivity type, and a first semiconductor layer of the second conductivity type extending into the silicon substrate from an upper surface of the silicon substrate, wherein the component periphery includes: a porous silicon ring extending into the silicon substrate from the upper surface to a depth deeper than the first layer; and a doped ring of the second conductivity type, extending from a lower surface of the silicon surface to the porous silicon ring.
