Abstract

A body region (3) with a first type of electric conductivity is arranged at the upper surface (10) of a substrate (1) in a well (2), wherein a portion of the well that is not occupied by the body region has a second type of conductivity opposite the first type of conductivity. At the upper surface, a source region is arranged in the body region and a drain region is arranged in the well at a distance from the body region; the source region and the drain region both have the second type of conductivity. The body region is arranged underneath a surface area of the upper surface that has a border (7) with opposing first border sides (8). The well has a varying depth in the substrate. The depth of the well is smaller underneath the first border sides of the body region than in a portion of the body region that is spaced apart from the first border sides.
