Abstract: The invention concerns a voltage-controlled triac-type component, formed in a N-type substrate (1) comprising first and second vertical thyristors (Th1, Th2), a first electrode (A2) of the first thyristor, on the front side of the component, corresponding to a first N-type region (6) formed in a first P-type box (5), the first box corresponding to a first electrode (A2) of the second thyristor, the first box containing a second N-type region (8); and a pilot structure comprising, above an extension of a second electrode region (4) of the second thyristor, a second P-type box (11) containing third and fourth N-type regions, the third region (12) and a portion of the second box (11) being connected to a gate terminal (G), the fourth region (13) being connected to the second region (8).

Abstract: A vertical semiconductor transistor component is built up on a substrate by using a statistical mask. The vertical semiconductor transistor component has vertical pillar structures statistically distributed over the substrate. The vertical pillar structures are electrically connected on a base side thereof to a first common electrical contact. The vertical pillar structures include, along the vertical direction, layer zones of differing conductivity, and have insulation layers on their circumferential walls. An electrically conductive material is deposited between the pillar structures and forms a second electrical contact of the semiconductor transistor component. The pillar structures are electrically contacted to a third common electrical contact on their capping side.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device includes: a first step of forming a first through hole that penetrates the location of the electrode in a semiconductor element having an electrode; a second step of providing an insulating material in a region including an inside of the first through hole, in such a manner that a second through hole is provided penetrating through the insulating material; and a third step of providing a conductive member within the second through hole that penetrates through at least the insulating material in the inside of the first through hole.
