Abstract

A device includes a first region disposed on a substrate, a second region disposed on the first region, a third region disposed in the second region and a first terminal region disposed in the third region. The first region comprises a discontinuous layer including at least one gap portion. The at least one gap portion comprises a portion of the substrate. The first region and the second region have a first conductivity type, and the substrate, the third region and the first terminal region have a second conductivity type. The first conductivity type is different from the second conductivity type.
