Zusammenfassung:An RC IGBT includes an active region with an IGBT section and a diode section. In a plurality of control trenches of the RC IGBT, there are a plurality of IGBT control electrodes and, electrically isolated from the IGBT control electrodes, a plurality of plasma control electrodes, each of the IGBT control electrodes and plasma control electrodes being electrically isolated from both load terminals of the RC IGBT. The IGBT section includes both a first subset of the IGBT control electrodes and a first subset of the plasma control electrodes. The diode section includes a second subset of the plasma control electrodes.
