Abstract
A super junction semiconductor device includes a semiconductor portion with a first surface and a second surface parallel to the first surface. The semiconductor portion includes a doped layer of a first conductivity type formed at least in a cell area. The super junction semiconductor device further includes columnar first super junction regions of a second, opposite conductivity type extending in a direction perpendicular to the first surface and separated by columnar second super junction regions of the first conductivity type. The first and second super junction regions form a super junction structure between the first surface and the doped layer. A distance between the first super junction regions and the second surface does not exceed 30 μm.
