ABSTRACT:
A bipolar transistor is disclosed including a semiconductor body having a cathode-side surface and an anode-side surface, and at least one insulated gate electrode. The semiconductor body has a central region with a predetermined doping concentration and of a first conductivity type. The central region borders on the cathode-side surface of the semiconductor body. Bordering on the cathode-side surface, at least one gate region is provided which borders on the central region. The gate region is of the second conductivity type and has a higher doping concentration than the central region. In the gate region, a source region is provided which borders on the cathode-side surface. The gate electrode is seated on an insulating layer applied on the cathode-side surface and covers the gate region. Between the anode-side surface and the central region is provided an anode region of the second conductivity type which has a higher doping concentration than the central region. Between gate region and source region, a shunt is provided. The anode region is a recrystallized region of a metal silicon alloy doped with a doping substance.
