Zusammenfassung:A semiconductor device includes a silicon carbide body that includes a first section and a second section. The first section is adjacent to the second section. A drift region is formed in the first section and the second section. A lattice defect region is in a portion of the drift region in the second section. A first density of lattice defects, which include interstitials and vacancies in the lattice defect region, is at least double a second density of lattice defects, which include interstitials and vacancies in a portion of the drift region outside the lattice defect region.
