Abstract

A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device includes forming a frame trench extending from a first surface into a base substrate, forming, in the frame trench, an edge termination structure comprising a glass structure, forming a conductive layer on the semiconductor substrate and the edge termination structure, and removing a portion of the conductive layer above the edge termination structure. A remnant portion of the conductive layer forms a conductive structure that covers a portion of the edge termination structure directly adjoining a sidewall of the frame trench.
