1. An edge structure and drift region of a semiconductor component, comprising:

  • a semiconductor body of a first conductivity type formed of a plurality of planes;

    an active zone of a second conductivity type opposite the first conductivity type disposed in said semiconductor body;

    a plurality of regions of the second conductivity type embedded in at least two mutually different planes in said semiconductor body; and

    connection zones formed in an area substantially underneath said active zone, connecting said regions to one another across different said planes, whereby said regions are otherwise floating regions.
