US Patent 7868363 Semiconductor component arrangement comprising a trench transistor

Disclosed is a semiconductor component arrangement and a method for producing a semiconductor component arrangement. The method comprises producing a trench transistor structure with at least one trench disposed in the semiconductor body and with at least a gate electrode disposed in the at least one trench. An electrode structure is disposed in at least one further trench and comprises an at least one electrode. The at least one trench of the transistor structure and the at least one further trench are produced by common process steps. Furthermore, the at least one electrode of the electrode structure and the gate electrode are produced by common process steps.
